Title

Stable Spatial Solitons In Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers

Abstract

A design for observation of stable, low intensity, dissipative solitons in semiconductor optical amplifiers was proposed. The field and carrier density evolution were modeled using a paraxial wave equation with resonant semiconductor nonlinearities coupled to a carrier diffusion equation. Stable soliton propagation was found over 5 diffraction lengths at the edge of stability (with net loss <0.4). The width of the soliton was 35 μm and the beam intensity was about 100 mW for a 0.5 μm active guiding layer.
