Vortex modes supported by spin–orbit coupling in a laser with saturable absorption

We introduce a system of two component two-dimensional (2D) complex Ginzburg–Landau equations with spin–orbit-coupling (SOC) describing a wide-aperture microcavity laser with saturable gain and absorption. We report families of two-component self-trapped dissipative laser solitons in this system. Th...
