Abstract
In this study we consider the propagation of few-cycle optical pulses in a thin film of a topological insulator. The electrons are described by means of the long-wavelength effective Hamiltonian at low temperatures, and the electromagnetic field is classically considered within the framework of Maxwell׳s equations. The time evolution of the pulse shape is analyzed for different values of its initial velocity and amplitude.
