We demonstrate that the temporal pulse phase remains essentially unaltered before separate phase
characteristics are developed when propagating high-intensity pulses coherently on the exciton resonance
of an optically thick semiconductor. This behavior is a clear manifestation of self-induced transmission
and pulse breakup into solitonlike pulses due to Rabi flopping of the carrier density. Experiments using a
novel fast-scan cross-correlation frequency-resolved optical gating (XFROG) method are in good
agreement with numerical calculations based on the semiconductor Bloch equations.
