title: Realization of reflectionless potentials in photonic lattices.
abstract: We realize experimentally a true reflectionless potential, which facilitates nonresonant unity transmission for all incident waves and at the same time supports localized modes. We utilize arrays of evanescently coupled optical waveguides, where a particular modulation of the transverse waveguide separations provides a physical realization of reflectionless Ablowitz-Ladik soliton potentials.
