title: Solitonic all-optical switch based on the fractional Talbot effect.
abstract: A periodic pattern of hundreds of beams is shifted by half its transverse period as the result of excitation of parametric spatial solitons and the fractional Talbot effect. The all-optical switch that is obtained operates with 1-ps pulses.
