Abstract :
Formation of temporal guiding-center walking solitons in tandem structures made of quadratic nonlinear crystals is investigated. The specific new effects and possibilities arising by engineering the multifrequency periodical variation of the group-velocity, group-velocity dispersion and nonlinearity existing in the tandem structures are introduced.
