Abstract
We investigate the propagation dynamics of Airy pulses in pure-quartic dispersion media both numerically and analytically. For linear propagation, our results show that Airy pulses will keep the acceleration-free propagation behaviors under the action of pure-quartic dispersion, quite different from the case in the presence of only quadratic or cubic dispersion. Another notable observation is that the optical fields will evolve to become a symmetric-shaped pulse and the oscillatory tail is gradually suppressed over long propagation. For nonlinear propagation, the Airy pulse having high powers will be shed into multiple soliton dynamics through the physical balance between anomalous pure-quartic dispersion and the Kerr nonlinear effect.
