Abstract :
This study deals with bright and dark spatial solitons in parametrically driven nonlinear interferometers. Results of numerical modeling show that couples of bright and dark cavity solitons can be formed in transverse intensity profiles of counterpropagating beams by strong local intensity fluctuations as well as the rest of so-called labyrinthine optical patterns. The final configurations consists of a pair of bright and dark solitons of different order.
