Variational analysis of dipole soliton in nonlocal nonlinear Kerr media

Abstract

By applying the variational method, we studied a kind of dipole soliton in the nonlocal nonlinear Kerr media. The parameter coupling equations of the dipole soliton were obtained, and numerical simulations were carried out. The results show that the transverse intensity distribution of the dipole soliton is similar to Hermite-Gaussian shape under the condition that the dipole soliton has a high energy which approaches the case of strongly nonlocal nonlinearity. There is a platform between the two intensity peaks of the dipole soltion under the condition that the dipole soliton has a low energy which belongs to the case of weakly nonlocal nonlinearity.
