چکیده

We study the properties of 2D cavity solitons in a coherently driven optical resonator subjected to a delayed feedback. The delay is found to induce a spontaneous motion of a single cavity soliton that is stationary and stable otherwise. This behavior occurs when the product of the delay time and the feedback strength exceeds some critical value. We derive an analytical formula for the speed of a moving soliton. Numerical results are in good agreement with analytical predictions.

Cavity solitons in vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers.

We investigate a control of the motion of localized structures (LSs) of light by means of delay feedback in the transverse section of a broad area nonlinear optical system. The delayed feedback is found to induce a spontaneous motion of a solitary LS that is stationary and stable in the absence of feedback. We focus our analysis on an experimentally relevant system, namely the vertical-cavity s...

Dissipative Solitons in Pattern-forming Nonlinear Optical Systems: Cavity Solitons and Feedback Solitons

Many dissipative optical systems support patterns. Dissipative solitons are generally found where a pattern coexists with a stable unpatterned state. We consider such phenomena in driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium (cavity solitons) and rather similar phenomena (feedback solitons) where a driven nonlinear optical medium is in front of a single feedback mirror. The history, th...

Cavity Solitons in Driven VCSELs above Threshold

CSs have been theoretically predicted and recently experimentally demonstrated in broad area, vertical cavity driven semiconductor lasers (VCSELs) slightly below the lasing threshold. Above threshold, the simple adiabatic elimination of the polarization variable is not correct, leading to oscillatory instabilities with a spuriously high critical wave-number. To achieve real insight on the compl...

Dynamics of localized structures in reaction-diffusion systems induced by delayed feedback.

We are interested in stability properties of a single localized structure in a three-component reaction-diffusion system subjected to the time-delayed feedback. We shall show that variation in the product of the delay time and the feedback strength leads to complex dynamical behavior of the system, including formation of target patterns, spontaneous motion, and spontaneous breathing as well as ...

Control of chaotic solitons by a time-delayed feedback mechanism.

We investigate a control of chaotic solitons using a modified time-delayed autosynchronization method. Numerical results for the maximal Lyapunov exponent are in very good agreement with analytical theory developed originally for low-dimensional systems. The control is most efficient when the spatial distribution of the control force is proportional to the kink translational mode. Observations ...
