Abstract
We report an exact bright and dark soliton solution to the nonlinear evolution equation derived by Moses and Wise (Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 2006, 073903) for cascaded quadratic media beyond the slowly varying envelope approximations. The integrability aspects of the model are addressed. The travelling wave hypothesis as well as the ansatz method are employed to obtain an exact 1-soliton solution. Both bright and dark soliton solutions are obtained. The corresponding constraint conditions are obtained in order for the soliton solutions to exist.
