This research proposes a scheme for creating stable light bullets in a cold Rydberg atomic gas system with PT symmetry moire optical lattices. By utilizing local and nonlocal Kerr nonlinearities and PT symmetry moire optical lattices, the researchers were able to obtain stable light bullets with different spatial and temporal distributions. The stability of the light bullets was evaluated through linear-stability analysis and direct simulation.
Realizing stable light bullets in high dimensions is a long-standing goal in the study of nonlinear optics. Here, we propose a scheme for the creation of stable light bullets (LBs) in a cold Rydberg atomic gas system with PT symmetry moire optical lattices. Depending on the synergetic local and nonlocal Kerr nonlinearities, and PT symmetry moire optical lattices, we obtain an appropriate nonlocal Rydberg long-range interaction and PT symmetry potential which can compensate for the diffraction and dispersion of the probe field. Numerical results show that different spatial and temporal distributions of LBs, including fundamental, multi-pole solitons, and vortical ones are uncovered, and their stabilities are evaluated through linear-stability analysis and direct simulation with perturbation. Furthermore, the solitons exhibit a quasi-elastic collision in the transversal di-rection during propagation. Our study provides a new route for manipulating LBs via controlled optical non-linearities and PT symmetry moire optical lattices in cold Rydberg gases.
