Abstract
Spatial-temporal characteristics of ultrashort optical pulses in a resonantly absorbing Bragg reflector are numerically evaluated. The moving and stationary spatial-temporal gap solitons are shown to exist in the photonic structure for a finite spatially-distributed light field in a finite thickness sample. A practical method of trapping light pulses in the photonic structure is presented.
