In this paper, we study the higher-order nonlinear Schrdinger (HNLS) equations for a directional fiber optic coupler with the third-order dispersion (TOD), self-steeping (SS) and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) effects and gain in one waveguide and loss in the other. We have reduced the system equations to an uncoupled HNLS equation which has bright and dark soliton solutions. It is shown that the Hamiltonian for this equation has a PT-symmetric form. Furthermore the equilibrium points are found and the discussion about their stability is presented... Read More»
