Instability of the amplitude and polarization of ultrashort light pulses exciting a semiconductor optical resonator

A correlation method was used to study experimentally a transient interaction of picosecond pulses with a gallium arsenide Fabry-Perot resonator. A nonlinear shift of the peak of a pulse was observed as well as its instability and splitting associated with the optical bistability effects.
