Abstract

In this work we investigated propagation of ultrashort laser pulses in dispersive nonlinear media. We derived a general propagation equation of pulses which includes the linear and nonlinear effects to all orders. We studied in the specific case of Kerr media and obtained an ultrashort pulse propagation equation called a Generalized Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation. The impact of the third order dispersion, the higher-order nonlinear terms self-steepening, and stimulated Raman scattering are explicitly analyzed.
