Abstract
In this work, we study the dynamics of electromagnetic radiation in a thin polymer film containing carbon nanotubes. Maxwell’s equations are supplemented with a term that takes into account the presence of polymers in the medium. The dependence of the spatial-energy characteristics of the optical pulse on the polymer concentration is revealed.
