We discuss the modulation instability (MI) process in detail and find that the higher-order term has no effect on the MI condition. Under different conditions, we obtain Kuznetsov-Ma soliton and Akhmediev breather solutions of higher-order nonlinear Schredinger equation. The former describes the propagation of a bright pulse on a continuous wave background in the presence of higher-order effects and the soliton's peak position is shifted owing to the presence of a nonvanishing background, while the latter implies the modulation instability process that can be used in practice to produce a train of ultrashort optical soliton pulses.展开更多

By presenting the modulation instability of the nonlinear system provided by the interaction between light fields and quantum wells, we show that the plane wave with small perturbation can evolve into periodic trains of pulses at high while controllable repetition rates. It is found that the formation of Kuznetsov-Ma solitons as well as their period is determined by the combination of group velocity dispersion, Kerr nonlinearity and the initial amplitude of the background wave. The present research may be useful for generating subpicosecond and femtosecond pulses.展开更多
