Temporal dissipative solitons in a three-level atomic medium confined in a photonic-band-gap fiber

Abstract

We obtained a propagation equation for an optical pulse at an electromagnetically induced transparency window guided on a gas-filled hollow-core photonic crystal fiber. This equation admits dissipative solitons whose analytical expression was also obtained. Depending on the parameter region, they may be stable or unstable. We simulated a typical experimental arrangement and found some cases for which the equation parameters are such that it admits stable solitons.
