Abstract

In last two decades the phenomena resulting from the evolution of ultra-short laser pulses in nonlinear dispersive medium actively are being studied. The most commonly used equation for describing the dynamics of optical pulses in one-dimensional and planar waveguides is the standard nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NSE). It works very well for nanosecond and picosecond laser pulses, but in the frames of femtosecond optics, it is necessary two additional terms to be included. They are responsible for higher order of linear dispersion and dispersion of nonlinearity. These effects are significant in the range of ultra-short light pulses. In the present paper, it is presented a theoretical model of the propagation of optical solitons. We found an exact analytical soliton solution of the modified NSE, including third order of linear dispersion and dispersion of nonlinearity. It is possible to observe a soliton as a result of the dynamic balance between effects of higher order of dispersion and nonlinearity.
