Abstract
Temporal solitary waves that are due to the mutual interaction of optical r ectification and the electro-optic effect in the presence of a second-order nonlinearity are studied. It is found that a two-parameter family of solit ons exists. Analytical solutions are found for special cases. Numerical sol iton solutions of the system of equations include single- and multiple-hump solitary waves. (C) 2001 Optical Society of America.
