Abstract
We report on the first experimental evidence of localized structures (dissipative solitons) in a one-dimensional optical Fabry–Pérot passive Kerr cavity. The Kerr-like medium is a non-instantaneous, diffusive ultra-thin film of liquid crystal inserted in a low-finesse cavity. Solitons with oscillating tails are experimentally observed in this system that can lock together to form complexes of solitons. The numerical simulations carried out on an infinite-dimensional map describing the intra-cavity field dynamics fully agree with the experimental observations.
