Effects of Spatial Distributivity in Semiconductor Optical Bistable Systems

Results are presented of a theoretical analysis of transverse and longitudinal distributivity effects in semiconductor optical bistable systems. For a resonatorless increasing absorption bistable system the kinetics of autopulsations (resulting from the formation of moving absorption domains) are described. For wideaperture nonlinear interferometers new types of field spatial structures are shown: immovable and moving autosolitons, waves of automodulation and autostochasticity, and pulsing distributions.
