Abstract :
Summary form only given. We present experimental evidence that the collision of two dark spatial solitons can be encoded in a computer generated hologram. Depending on the interacting dark solitons encoded in the hologram it is possible to create asymmetric Y-junctions. Waveguide properties of this junction are also presented.
