title: Experimental observation of the elliptically polarized fundamental vector soliton of isotropic Kerr media.
abstract: We report the experimental observation of the elliptically polarized fundamental vector soliton of isotropic Kerr media and its unique polarization evolution. This was achieved in the spatial domain in a nonbirefringent CS2 planar waveguide.
