A basic equation, describing the temporal evolution of fields in a chiral medium with Kerr non-linearity is used to study the effects resulting from the combined action of chirality and non-linearity on optical solitons. The spatial chirality effect is characterized through the Born-Fedorov formalism. Simulations are based in the split-step Fourier method and the numerical results show the chiral effects on solitons with circular and mixed polarization. (C) 2002 IMACS.
