Modulation instability in an extended nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The modulation instability of an extended nonlinear Schrödinger equation was investigated. It was found that the odd-order higher dispersion [β3] does not contribute to the modulation-instability frequency. The time derivative of the nonlinearity was included and shown to affect the instability. Finally, nonlinear retardation effects are shown to alter the results significantly.
