Abstract :
In this paper, we present major improvements in nonlinear field, since we have been able to fabricate homogeneous fiber bundles, which allow us to study the clean spatial nonlinear dynamics of light. Furthermore, it becomes possible to observe the combined effects of temporal and spatial dynamics.
