Stochastic perturbation of non-Kerr law optical solitons

The dynamics of optical solitons with non-Kerr law non-linearities, in presence of stochastic perturbation terms, is studied in this paper. The Langevin equations are derived and it is proved that the solitons travel through a fiber with a fixed mean velocity. The non-linearities that are considered here are the power law, parabolic law and the dual-power law types.     

A new conserved quantity for non-Kerr law optical solitons

This paper talks about a new conservation law in non-Kerr law media. This new integral of motion is used to provide an equation for the phase of the soliton. This law is also used to obtain the adiabatic variation of the soliton phase due to perturbation terms in a non-Kerr law media that includes the power law, parabolic law and the dual-power law.     

Optical soliton perturbation in non-Kerr law media: Traveling wave solution

This paper analyses the dynamics of soliton propagation through optical fibers with non-Kerr law nonlinearities. The governing nonlinear Schrödinger equation is integrated in the presence of perturbation terms. The traveling wave hypothesis is used to carry out the integration. Domain restrictions on the soliton parameters are identified in the process. The five forms of nonlinearity that are studied are Kerr-law, power-law, parabolic-law, dual-power law and the log-law nonlinearity. Numerical simulations are presented for each of these nonlinear media.     

Optical soliton perturbation with Raman scattering and saturable amplifiers

The method of multiple-scale perturbation is developed to study the propagation of solitons through an optical fiber described by the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger's equation. We show that, by introducing a proper definition of the phase of the soliton, one can obtain the corrections to the pulse where the usual soliton perturbation approach fails. A comparison is made with results obtained by other methods as well as with numerical simulations.     

Femtosecond Pulse Propagation in Optical Fibers Under Higher Order Effects: A Collective Variable Approach

Employing collective variable approach, femtosecond pulse propagation has been investigated in optical fibers using the higher order nonlinear Schrödinger equation. In order to view the pulse dynamics along the propagation distance, variation of different pulse parameters, called collective variables, such as pulse amplitude, width, chirp, pulse center and frequency has been investigated by numerically solving the set of ordinary equations obtained from collective variable approach.     

Collision of optical solitons with Kerr law nonlinearity

The intra-channel collision of optical solitons, with Kerr law nonlinearity, is studied by the aid of quasi-particle theory. The perturbation terms considered in this paper are all of Hamiltonian type. It is shown that the soliton–soliton interaction can be suppressed in the presence of these perturbations, namely, the self-steepening, the third-order dispersion, the fourth-order dispersion and the frequency separation between the soliton carrier and the gain-center frequency. The prediction of quasi-particle theory are fully confirmed by direct numerical simulations.     

Perturbation of Super-Sech Solitons in Dispersion-Managed Optical Fibers

The dynamics of super-sech solitons in dispersion-managed optical fibers is obtained in this paper. The dynamical system of soliton parameters is obtained for such pulses for dispersion-managed fibers, in presence of various perturbation terms. The perturbation terms studied are Hamiltonian, as well as non-Hamiltonian along with non-local types.     

Approxiamation theory for unequal amplitude soliton pairs in nonliear optical fibers

The equivalent-particle approach is used to investigate the interaction of two unequal-amplitude solitons propagating in nonlinear fibers by regarding the interaction as a perturbation. The Newtonian equations for the motion of solitons are given. Results show that the interaction of an unequal-amplitude soliton pair can be approximated as the product of a local interaction factor dependent on the propagation distance and a nonlocal interaction factor independent of the propagation distance. The local factor forces soliton interaction to alternate between the attractive and the repulsive, and, on a large scale, the average of this character markedly reduces the interaction of the unequal-amplitude solitons.     

Optical solitons in the parabolic law media with high-order dispersion

The transmission equation of ultrashort optical pulse in the high-order dispersion media with the parabolic law (cubic–quintic) nonlinearity has been studied with the help of the subsidiary ordinary differential equation expansion method. As a result, the optical solitons and triangular periodic solutions are obtained, and the conditions for exact solutions to exist are also given.     

Stochastic perturbation of Kerr law optical solitons

The soliton perturbation theory is used to study and analyze the stochastic perturbation of optical solitons, due to Kerr law nonlinearity, in addition to deterministic perturbations of optical solitons that is governed by the nonlinear Schrödingers equation. The Langevin equations are derived and analyzed. The deterministic perturbations that are considered here are of both Hamiltonian as well as of non-Hamiltonian type.     

Optical soliton perturbation with spatio-temporal dispersion in parabolic and dual-power law media by semi-inverse variational principle

This paper studies the perturbed optical solitons with parabolic and dual-power law nonlinearities in presence of spatio-temporal dispersion. The semi-inverse variational principle is applied to extract an analytical 1-soliton solution to the governing equation. There are constraint conditions that naturally fall out for the existence of these solitons.     

Perturbed soliton excitations in the DNA double helix

We study the nonlinear dynamics of the inhomogeneous DNA double-helical chain using the dynamic plane-base rotator model by considering angular rotation of bases in a plane normal to the helical axis. The DNA dynamics in this case is found to be governed by a perturbed sine-Gordon equation, while taking into account the interstrand hydrogen bonding energy, between bases, and the intrastrand inhomogeneous stacking energy and by making an analogy with the Heisenberg model of the Hamiltonian of an inhomogeneous anisotropic spin ladder with ferromagnetic legs and antiferromagnetic rung coupling. In the homogeneous limit the dynamics is governed by the kink-antikink soliton of the sine-Gordon equation which represents the formation of an open state configuration in the DNA double helix. The effect of inhomogeneity in the stacking energy in the form of localized and periodic variations on the formation of open states in DNA is studied under perturbation. The perturbed soliton is obtained using a multiple-scale soliton perturbation theory by solving the associated linear eigenvalue problem and by constructing the complete set of eigenfunctions. The inhomogeneity in stacking energy is found to modulate the width and speed of the soliton depending on the nature of the inhomogeneity. Also it introduces fluctuations in the form of a train of pulses or periodic oscillations in the open state configuration.     

Effect of the dark soliton crystal temperature on the deflection of the bright soliton in a separate bright–dark screening soliton pair

We investigate theoretically the dark soliton crystal temperature effect on the deflection of the bright one in a bright–dark soliton pair which is formed in a serial non-photovoltaic photorefractive crystal circuit. Our numerical results show that the spatial shift of the bright soliton changes with the temperature of the dark one crystal and varying the temperature of the dark soliton crystal can influence the deflection strongly. The temperature dependence of the deflection process is further studied by perturbation technique and the results are found to be good agreement with that obtained by numerical method. Relevant examples are provided.     

Optical Solitons with Time-Dependent Dispersion, Nonlinearity and Attenuation in a Kerr-Law Media

This paper obtains the 1-soliton solution of the nonlinear Schr?dinger’s equation with Kerr law nonlinearity and time-dependent dispersion, nonlinearity and attenuation. The solitary wave ansatze is used to obtain this solution. The constraint relation between these time-dependent coefficients is also obtained for the solitons to exist. The variation of the soliton velocity also falls out by this method.     

Spinning solitons in cubic-quintic nonlinear media

We review recent theoretical results concerning the existence, stability and unique features of families of bright vortex solitons (doughnuts, or ‘spinning’ solitons) in both conservative and dissipative cubic-quintic nonlinear media.     

Incoherently coupled anti-dark soliton pairs

The solutions of the intensity envelopes of a novel type of incoherently coupled spatial soliton pair, named anti-dark soliton pair, are deduced by careful theoretical analyses. Simultaneously the forming conditions of the anti-dark soliton pair are derived in the paper, according to which an example of anti-dark soliton family that exists in cubic-quintic nonlinear media is given.     

Optical solitons and optical rogons of generalized resonant dispersive nonlinear Schrödinger's equation with power law nonlinearity

This paper obtains solitons and singular periodic solutions to the generalized resonant dispersive nonlinear Schrödinger’ equation with power law nonlinearity. There are several integration tools that are adopted to extract these solutions. They are simplest equation method, functional variable method, sine–cosine function method, tanh function method and the G′/G-expansion method. These integration techniques reveal bright and singular solitons as well as the corresponding singular periodic solutions to the nonlinear evolution equation. These solitons solutions are important in the nonlinear fiber optics community as well as in the study of rogue waves.     

A new soliton communication band for optical networking redundancy using a Gaussian soliton generation

We present a novel communication band of the tunable multi-Gaussian soliton system, whereas the large bandwidth signals of the spatial soliton pulses can be generated after propagating within the nonlinear ring resonator system. A Gaussian pulse input with 20 ns pulse width, 2 W peak power, the center wavelength at 1300 nm is propagated into the nonlinear ring resonator system. Using the appropriate parameters relating to the practical device such as micro-ring radii, coupling coefficients, linear and nonlinear refractive index, we found that the multi-soliton pulse obtained have shown the potential of application for a new dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) band. The soliton pulse width and free spectrum range of 400 and 7 fm are obtained, respectively, which can be used to increase the channel capacity in soliton communication. Furthermore, the soliton power obtained is available for system and link redundancy, where the output soliton power of 12 W is achieved.

Dipole soliton formation in a nematic liquid crystal in the nonlocal limit

The interaction of two symmetric solitary waves, termed nematicons, in a liquid crystal is considered in the limit of nonlocal response of the liquid crystal. This nonlocal limit is the applicable limit for most experimentally available liquid crystals. In this nonlocal limit, two separate cases for the initial separation of the nematicons are considered, these being large and small separation. Both spinning and nonspinning nematicons are considered. It is found that in the case of large initial separation, the nematicons can form a spinning or nonspinning bound state with a finite steady separation, this being called a nematicon dipole, when they are π out of phase. On the other hand, well separated, nonspinning, in-phase nematicons attract and merge, while well separated, spinning, in-phase nematicons can either form a bound state or merge into a single nematicon. In the limit of small initial separation, the nematicons rapidly merge when they are in phase. Modulation equations describing the nematicon interaction are derived via suitable trial functions in an averaged Lagrangian. These modulation equations are further modified to include the effect of the diffractive radiation shed as the nematicons evolve. Finally the modulation equations are approximated in order to investigate the various interaction regimes. Good to excellent agreement is found between their solutions and full numerical solutions of the nematicon equations.
