Abstract

The set of equations governing the dynamics of the parameters of a super-Gaussian pulse propagating in an isotropic dielectric in regions of both normal and anomalous group velocity dispersion is obtained. It is demonstrated that stimulated Raman scattering can suppress the formation of a nonlinear focus. The expression for critical power of the signal for which self-focusing can still be compensated by diffraction-limited divergence is derived.
