Abstract
We report the observation of incoherently coupled dark-bright spatial soliton pairs in a biased bulk photorefractive crystal. When such a pa ir is decoupled, the dark component evolves into a triplet structure,w hereas the bright one decays into a self-defocusing beam. (C) 1996 Opt ical Society of America.
