Abstract
Theoretical studies on the formation of gap soliton in one-dimensional negative Kerr nonlinear photonic crystal have been presented. Formation of gap soliton through the one dimensional photonic crystal has been studies for different intensities of controlling wave by solving Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations and using transfer matrix method. The study shows that gap soliton form at high intensities of controlling wave and this property can be used to design optical switches..
