Abstract

The interaction and switching of optical solitons in a nonlinear directional coupler are investigated analytically and numerically. The influence of the coupling-coefficient dispersion, the third order dispersion and the Raman effect in fibers on these processes are reported. Coupled soliton states are found, and their stability is checked numerically. Switching characteristics of solitons in directional couplers are studied.
