Dynamics of Spatial Soliton in a Gradient Refractive Index Waveguide with Nonlocal Nonlinearity

A. SURYANTO, I. DARTI

Abstract


We study the propagation of a spatial soliton in a triangular gradient refractive index (GRIN) waveguide with nonlocal nonlinearity. Dynamics of such soliton propagation are predicted analytically using equivalent-particle approach. It is shown that without nonlocal nonlinearity the soliton oscillates periodically and symmetrically with the oscillation center exactly at the center of waveguide. Weak nonlocal nonlinearity leads to an asymmetric oscillation of the soliton and also shifts the oscillation center. Stronger nonlocal nonlinearity will produce a soliton exit from the waveguide where the soliton remains stable. Furthermore, a soliton with higher amplitude causes a much bigger nonlocal effect. The dynamics of the soliton are also simulated numerically. The results of our simulations agree very well with our analytical prediction.

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
