Abstract

Soliton dynamics under the action of higher-order dispersion and the Raman effect is analyzed. Though we consider a wide variety of parameters, a particularly interesting phenomenon occurs when the presence of cubic and quartic dispersion results in two regions of anomalous group velocity dispersion (GVD) separated by a region of normal dispersion. In this case a sharp switching of the soliton frequency from one anomalous GVD region to the other may exist. During such a transformation, the center of the soliton spectrum passes through the normal GVD region. We show that this switching occurs due to the phase matching between the soliton and the resonance frequency in the two anomalous GVD regions.
