Optical Bullet Holes: Robust Controllable Localized States of a Nonlinear Cavity
Abstract
Stable localized states are predicted for a saturable absorber in an optical cavity. These ``bullet holes'' resemble 2D spatial solitons, and we demonstrate an optical memory array scheme based on them. A topological argument shows that one or more unstable localized states coexist with the stable bullet hole.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
