Localized dispersive states in nonlinear coupled mode equations for light propagation in fiber Bragg gratings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Dispersion effects induce new instabilities and dynamics in the weakly nonlinear description of light propagation in fiber Bragg gratings. A new family of dispersive localized pulses that propagate with the group velocity is numerically found, and its ...
