Abstract
We show spatial localized structures in degenerate optical parametric oscillators associated with bistability between two homogeneous soluti ons of the same amplitude and the opposite phase. These localized stru ctures are principally different from the ones analyzed previously in nonlinear optics (including optical parametric oscillators), where bis tability between different patterns (most often zero-and nonzero-field states) was at the root. [S1050-2947(98)08201-8].
