Abstract
We report on experimental evidence of cavity solitons in driven diode lasers below threshold. We show for the first time in semiconductors that one-peaked structures, generated in arbitrary locations, are spatially uncorrelated, as required for solitons. A microscopic model shows excellent agreement with experimental results.
