We study pattern formation in a paraxial model for an unidirectional ring resonator filled with a semiconductor sample and driven by a coherent injected field beyond the mean field limit (MFL). We perform numerical simulations to describe the three-dimensional dynamics of the coherent field profile. For fast media spontaneous self-confinement leads to the formation of 313 dissipative addressable spatial solitons, we show that for carrier dynamics compatible with GaAs/GaAlAs MQW devices longitudinal self-confinement is hindered by the slow carrier interband dynamics.

Abstract
We study pattern formation in a paraxial model for an unidirectional ring resonator filled with a semiconductor sample and driven by a coherent injected field beyond the mean field limit (MFL). We perform numerical simulations to describe the three-dimensional dynamics of the coherent field profile. For fast media spontaneous self-confinement leads to the formation of 313 dissipative addressable spatial solitons, we show that for carrier dynamics compatible with GaAs/GaAlAs MQW devices longitudinal self-confinement is hindered by the slow carrier interband dynamics.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
