Abstract
We show that bright temporal solitonlike pulses can propagate in AlGaA s waveguides excited in the half-bandgap spectral regime. The use of a n antiresonant reflecting optical waveguide permits the dispersion-of the waveguide to be controlled so that a mode with anomalous dispersio n can propagate.
