In the framework of Transverse Nonlinear Optics and Optical Pattern Formation, we study the formation of cavity solitons (CS) in semiconductor microcavities. We adopt a microscopic model that describes the field and carrier dynamics in the quasi-equilibrium regime, within the free-carrier approximation, with the Urbach tail and the bandgap renormalization, taken into account in a phenomenological way. We numerically predict the formation of patterns in the transverse profile of the output field, in specific range of parameters.

Abstract
In the framework of Transverse Nonlinear Optics and Optical Pattern Formation, we study the formation of cavity solitons (CS) in semiconductor microcavities. We adopt a microscopic model that describes the field and carrier dynamics in the quasi-equilibrium regime, within the free-carrier approximation, with the Urbach tail and the bandgap renormalization, taken into account in a phenomenological way. We numerically predict the formation of patterns in the transverse profile of the output field, in specific range of parameters.File in questo prodotto:
