Solitons in optical metamaterials having parabolic law nonlinearity with detuning effect and Raman scattering.

The dynamics of pulse propagation through nonlinear optical metamaterials, maintaining parabolic law nonlinearity, is investigated. The model includes spatio-temporal dispersion, detuning effect, inter-modal dispersion, self-steepening effect, Raman scattering, nonlinear dispersion and third-order dispersion. Bright, dark and singular soliton solutions are derived by the implementation of coupled phase-amplitude formulation. The conditions on the material parameters for the existence of these solitons are also enumerated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
