Hi!
I'm trying to solve the beam propagation equation in a nonlinear
dispersive media without using the slowly varying approximation. For
this, i'm using the method illustraded by Dr. G.P.Agarwal in his book
"Non-linear Fiber Optics", Chap 2, Eqn 2.4.8 with my nonlinear
operator given as per eqn 2.4.3 i.e.
N= i*(nonlinearity coefft)*[ |A|^2*A +2i/w0 d/dt(|A|^2*A)-
TrAd/dT(|A|^2)]
If i neglect the last 2 terms, i get the standard NL Schrodinger
Equation for which i have written the Matlab code. How do i
incorporate the next two terms and more specifically, how do i
evaluate exp(h*N(z)) with step size h? Do i take the operator to
Fourier space, as Dr. Agarwal has done for the Dispersive operator?
Any references would also be very helpful
Thanks!
