Abstract

Theoretical and numerical study is performed of bright solitons in a resonantly driven cavity-polariton system with linear coupling of two spin components. Together with repulsive Coulomb interaction of polaritons with parallel spins, such coupling involves spontaneous breakdown of spin symmetry. Solitons originate under the joint action of a continuous-wave excitation and spatially local short-term pulse. Due the symmetry breaking, solitons exhibit two intensity peaks with opposite spins which are separated in space. Here we predict spontaneous formation of large soliton arrays with alternating spins. The number of intensity peaks is found to gradually increase in the course of soliton propagation, resulting in turbulent field states.
