Abstract
Metamaterials can be designed to have desirable linear and nonlinear electromagnetic responses to light waves, thus become a new candidate for generating and manipulating solitons. Here, we present a review of optical solitons in metamaterials, focusing on the new properties of temporal, spatial and spatiotemporal solitons relating to the unique electromagnetic property of metamaterials.
