Abstract

En 中文
A new numerical scheme for computing self-localized states-or solitons-of nonlinear waveguides is proposed. The idea behind the method is to transform the underlying equation governing the soliton, such as a nonlinear Schrodinger-type equation, into Fourier space and determine a nonlinear nonlocal integral equation coupled to an algebraic equation. The coupling prevents the numerical scheme from diverging. The nonlinear guided mode is then determined from a convergent fixed point iteration scheme. This spectral renormalization method can find wide applications in nonlinear optics and related fields such as Bose-Einstein condensation and fluid mechanics. (c) 2005 Optical Society of America.
