A Phase-Modulated Two-Component Pulse in a Dispersive Medium

Аннотация

A theory of optical two-component pulse of self-induced transparency in a dispersive medium has been developed. Using the generalized version of the perturbative expansion method, the system of material equations for an ensemble of two-level atoms and the wave equation in a dispersive medium are reduced to coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. A solution in the form of a phase-modulated two-component \(0\pi \) pulse is obtained. The pulse components oscillate at the sum and difference frequencies in the vicinity of the carrier-wave frequency. Explicit analytical expressions for the parameters and formation conditions of a nonlinear wave, which depend on the dispersive properties of the medium, are presented. Known results are obtained for a particular case.
