Abstract :
In this contribution the authors provide theoretical evidence of self-localization of polaritons in the direction orthogonal to the pump tilt (y), which is unusual for the defocusing nonlinearity. The authors study the formation of 1D CPSs excising due to the parametric four-wave mixing of polaritons.
