In this paper, we explore the formation of asymmetric modulation instability spectrum in the metamaterials as a result of the joined effect of self-steepening and intra-pulse Raman scattering. In general, the modulation instability gain spectrum is symmetric about the zero perturbation frequency. Here we observe asymmetric modulation instability gain spectrum and the asymmetry depends on the sign of the refractive index of the medium. When the refractive index of the medium is negative the band with high modulation instability gain is observed at positive detuning frequency regime in contrast to the case of positive refractive index regime where the band with high modulation instability gain is present at a negative detuning frequency regime. This preponderance is attributed to the opposite directionality of phase velocity and energy flow in a negative index material. Our study provides additional ways to tune soliton and ultrashort pulses utilizing engineering freedom of metamaterials.
