In optics, the cubic-quintic nonlinear
Schrödinger (CQNLS) equation models electromagnetic wave propagation in various
optical media. Competing cubic and quintic nonlinearities will allow the
existence of stable soliton solutions (see Göksel et al. (2015)). In this study, a numerical method is
introduced to obtain these solitons in different self-focusing /
self-defocusing cubic-quintic media. Solitons obtained numerically by this
spectral method are then validated by comparison with exact solutions.
