Mathematical Modeling of Soliton-Like Modes at Optical Rectification
Abstract We discuss the results of numerical modeling of forming optical-terahertz bullets at the process of optical rectification. Our calculations are based on a generalization of the well-known Yajima - Oikawa system, which describes the nonlinear interaction of short (optical) and long (terahertz) waves. The generalization relates to situations when the optical component is close to a few-cycle pulse. We study the influence of the number of optical pulse oscillations on the formation of an optical-terahertz bullet. We develop original nonlinear conservative pseudo-spectral difference scheme approximating the generalization of the Yajima-Oikawa system. It is realized with the help of FFT algorithm. Mathematical modeling demonstrates scheme efficiency.
