The numerical solution of a wave equation describing the propagation of the laser pulse of a few optical cycles in fused silica is obtained. Our numerical simulations closely follow the published experimental data. A shifting of the spectrum peak of the broadened pulse, depending on the input‐pulse central wavelength, is observed. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
