Stabilization of a light bullet in a layered Kerr medium with sign-changing nonlinearity.
Using the numerical solution of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and a variational method, it is shown that ( 3+1 ) -dimensional spatiotemporal optical solitons, known as light bullets, can be stabilized in a layered Kerr medium with sign-changing nonlinearity along the propagation direction.
