Solitary wave solution to the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation for dispersive permittivity and permeability
arXiv:1001.0727 · doi:10.1140/epjd/e2011-10288-0
Abstract
We present a solitary wave solution of the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation for dispersive permittivity and permeability using a scaling transformation and coupled amplitude-phase formulation. We have considered the third-order dispersion effect (TOD) into our model and show that soliton shift may be suppressed in a negative index material by a judicious choice of the TOD and self-steepening parameter.
