Abstract
This paper introduce a kind of spiraling elliptic Laguerre–Gaussian (SELG) soliton which has complicated structures in its profile and phase, and find that it can be formed in nonlocal cubic, quantic and competing cubic-quintic nonlinear media, respectively. The different-order SELG solitons with the same ellipticity have the same rotation period, cross-term phase coefficient, critical power and different critical orbital angular momentums (OAM). However, with the increase of ellipticity, the rotation period, cross-term phase coefficient, critical power and OAM are all increased. In particular, there are bistable SELG solitons stemmed by the competing effect between self-focusing cubic and self-defocusing quintic nonlinearities.
