Based on Maxwell’s equations, an effective wave equation for the vector-potential of the pulse electric field is obtained. A computer simulation of the evolution of an optical pulse with duration of several femtoseconds in the medium with spatially variable refractive index based on a superlattice has been carried out. The system is placed in a cylindrical optical cavity. It has been established that optical pulses propagating in this system retain their energy in a limited region of space. Numerical simulation of the dynamics of optical pulses was carried out at long times (up to 100 ps).
