Abstract

We study the properties of optical pulse in cubic-quintic nonlinear media using information theoretic approach. The system can support regular (sharp top) and flat top pulse depending on the type of quintic interaction and the frequency of the pulse. For defocusing quintic nonlinearity, it holds both regular and flat top soliton. We find that Fisher information suddenly drops near the transition from sharp to flat top pulse. This is also reflected in the linear stability curve where power of the pulse suddenly grows near the point of transition. However, the solution is linearly stable according to Vakhitov-Kolokolov criterion. We examine that, in the case of focusing nonlinearity, the change from linearly stable and unstable solitons becomes imperceptible through Fisher information.
