Cavity Solitons
W. J. Firth, G. K. Harkness
A driven optical cavity containing a nonlinear medium can support stable, soliton-like objects, bright non-diffracting spots of light on a uniform background. Importantly, the nonl…
Theory and Application of Cavity Solitons in Photonic Devices
Gian-Luca Oppo, William J. Firth
Driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium support stable dissipative solitons, cavity solitons, in the form of bright or dark spots of light on a uniformly-lit backgrou…
Optical pattern formation with a 2-level nonlinearity
A. Camara, R. Kaiser, G. Labeyrie +5
We present an experimental and theoretical investigation of spontaneous pattern formation in the transverse section of a single retro-reflected laser beam passing through a cloud o…
Adler synchronization of spatial laser solitons pinned by defects
P. V. Paulau, C. McIntyre, Y. Noblet +5
Defects due to growth fluctuations in broad-area semiconductor lasers induce pinning and frequency shifts of spatial laser solitons. The effects of defects on the interaction of tw…
