Depends on what you mean by "string" and by "under the cursor".

After pressing C-s, you can use C-w to insert the word(s) after the
cursor.

If you're searching for the symbol at point, you can jump to the next
location with my highlight-symbol-mode[1].

For something else, you could dig through this:
