Abstract
We study the properties of the coherent structures induced by the modulational instability (MI) of the two linearly coupled complex Ginzburg-Landau equations with both cubic and quintic terms, which in nonlinear optics can model ring lasers based on dual-core fibers. We obtain new stationary solutions different from the previous result and the analytic gain formula as function of the linear coupling constant and the model parameters. The fact that the system can be modulationally unstable for the vast region of the parameters space is demonstrated. The effects of the linear coupling constant on the evolution of a continuous wave under the MI are numerically investigated in the presence of the linear loss or gain. It is found that doubly asymmetric stable solitary pulses and stable breathers can be formed from the perturbed continuous waves state by the MI. The conditions for generating the periodic stable solitary pulses and fronts by the MI are identified by varying the linear coupling constant.
