Sudden chaotic transitions in an optically injected semiconductor laser.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study sudden changes in the chaotic output of an optically injected semiconductor laser. For what is believed to be the first time in this system, we identify bifurcations that cause abrupt changes between different chaotic outputs, or even sudden jumps between chaotic and periodic output. These sudden chaotic transitions involve attractors that exist for large regions in parameter space.

Controlling the Occurrence of Rogue Waves in an Optically Injected Semiconductor Laser via Changing The Injection Strength
The rouge waves in an optically injected semiconductor lasers are receiving a lot of interest. In this work, the generating and controlling of the rogue waves in semiconductor lasers have been investigated. For this purpose, the laser’s rate equations are solved numerically in a specified time interval, then the field amplitude and the intensity versus time are calculated and analyzed. To solve...
متن کاملEffects of intrinsic spontaneous-emission noise on the nonlinear dynamics of an optically injected semiconductor laser
The effects of intrinsic spontaneous-emission noise on the nonlinear dynamics of an optically injected semiconductor laser is quantitatively studied through a single-mode model. It is found that for periodic motions, the effect of this noise source is to kick phase points off the underlying deterministic limit cycle. When the noise is not too strong so that phase points can stay near the limit ...
متن کاملBroadband optical chaos for stimulated Brillouin scattering suppression in power over fiber
Broadband chaos generated in an optically injected semiconductor laser is applied for power-over-fiber transmission. By varying the injection power, period-one oscillation, period-two oscillation, and chaotic oscillation are observed in the injected slave laser, indicating a period-doubling route to chaos. Compared to the free-running output of the laser, its chaotic output has a drastically in...
متن کاملUnnested islands of period doublings in an injected semiconductor laser.
We present a theoretical study of unnested period-doubling islands in three-dimensional rate equations modeling a semiconductor laser subject to external optical injection. In this phenomenon successive curves of period doublings are not arranged in nicely nested islands, but intersect each other. This overall structure is globally organized by several codimension-2 bifurcations. As a consequen...
متن کاملRandom bit generation using an optically injected semiconductor laser in chaos with oversampling.
Random bit generation is experimentally demonstrated using a semiconductor laser driven into chaos by optical injection. The laser is not subject to any feedback so that the chaotic waveform possesses very little autocorrelation. Random bit generation is achieved at a sampling rate of 10 GHz even when only a fractional bandwidth of 1.5 GHz within a much broader chaotic bandwidth is digitized. B...
