[INVITED] Soliton propagation through nanoscale waveguides in optical metamaterials

This paper studies the dynamics of soliton propagation through optical metamaterials. The proposed model will be studied with five forms of nonlinearity. They are Kerr law, power law, parabolic law, dualpower law and log-law. The integration scheme that will be adopted is the method of undetermined coefficients. Bright, dark and singular soliton solutions will be obtained. The essential conditions for the existence of these solitons will naturally emerge. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
