Abstract

A semiclassical model of a unidirectional anisotropic ring cavity dye laser has been investigated analytically and numerically. In spite of the axial symmetry of the inversion angular distribution and the isotropy of the cavity, polarized initial fluctuations cause spontaneous light-polarization symmetry breaking in the form of alternative circularly polarized waves. Polarization symmetry is restored by increasing the orientational relaxation and pumping rates or the anisotropy of the cavity.
