Abstract
Phase domains and phase solitons in two-level amplifying media damped by a squeezed vacuum are predicted for the first time. Two different types of pattern formation are found depending on the relative value of the cavity detuning to the squeezed parameter: the usual one in lasers via a supercritical Hopf bifurcation and a new one via pitchfork bifurcation.
