The generalized nonlinear Schrodinger equation (GNLSE) is shown to severely fail in preserving the number of photons for sub-100-fs solitons, leading to a large overestimation of the frequency shift. Furthermore, when considering the case of a frequency-dependent nonlinear coefficient, the GNLSE also fails to provide a good estimation of the time shift experienced by the soliton. We tackle these shortcomings of the GNLSE by resorting to the recently introduced photon-conserving GNLSE (pcGNLSE) and study the interplay between the RIFS and self steepening. As a result, we make apparent the impact of higher order nonlinearities on short-soliton propagation and propose an original and direct method for the estimation of the second-order nonlinear coefficient."enOPTICA NO LINEALDISPERSIONArtículos de Publicaciones Periódicas
