Solitary wave solutions for few-cycle optical pulses
Please always quote using this URN:urn:nbn:de:0296-matheon-4878
- Propagation of short optical pulses in a nonlinear dispersive medium is considered without the use of slow envelope and unidirectional propagation approximations. The existence of uniformly moving solitary solutions is predicted in the anomalous dispersion domain. A four-parametric family of such solutions is found that contains the classical envelope soliton in the limit of large pulse durations. In the opposite limit we get another family member, which in contrast to the envelope soliton strongly depends on nonlinearity model and represents the shortest and the most intense pulse which can propagate in a stationary manner.
