Abstract

We study the nonlinear dynamics of wave packets in honeycomb lattices, and show that, in quasi-1D configurations, the waves propagating in the lattice can be separated into left-moving and right-moving waves, and any wave packet composed of left (or right) movers only does not change its intensity structure in spite of the nonlinear evolution of its phase. We show that the propagation of a general wave packet can be described, within a good approximation, as a superposition of left and right moving self-similar (nonlinear) solutions. Finally, we find that Klein tunneling is not suppressed due to nonlinearity.
