We investigate total internal reflection of optical spatial solitons at the interface between two regions of nematic liquid crystals with different optical densites. Due to nonlinear molecular reorientation, the solitons experience a penetration depth, hence, a latera shift that depends on the excitation, with lateral shifts from 0.7 to 1.2 mm as input powers increased from 1.6 to 9.3 mW.

Abstract
We investigate total internal reflection of optical spatial solitons at the interface between two regions of nematic liquid crystals with different optical densites. Due to nonlinear molecular reorientation, the solitons experience a penetration depth, hence, a latera shift that depends on the excitation, with lateral shifts from 0.7 to 1.2 mm as input powers increased from 1.6 to 9.3 mW.
