Negative-coupling resonances in pump-coupled lasers
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider coupled lasers, where the intensity deviations from the steady state, modulate the pump of the other lasers. Most of our results are for two lasers where the coupling constants are of opposite sign. This leads to a Hopf bifurcation to periodic output for weak coupling. As the magnitude of the coupling constants is increased (negatively) we observe novel amplitude effects such as a weak coupling resonance peak and, strong coupling subharmonic resonances and chaos. In the weak coupling regime the output is predicted by a set of slow evolution amplitude equations. Pulsating solutions in the strong coupling limit are described by discrete map derived from the original model.

Electromagnetically induced gain in molecular systems
We report electromagnetically induced gain in a highly degenerate two-level rotational vibrational molecular system. Using two photon Raman-type interaction with right and left circularly polarized pump and probe waves, the Zeeman coherence is established within the manifold of degenerate sublevels belonging to a rotational vibrational eigenstate. We analytically and numerically calculate the t...
متن کاملTorus Maps from Weak Coupling of Strong Resonances
This paper investigates a family of diffeomorphisms of the two dimensional torus derived from a model of an array of driven, coupled lasers (Braiman et al. 1995). It gives a negative answer to a question raised by Baesens et al. (1991a) about two parameter families of diffeomorphisms and flows of the two dimensional torus by exhibiting resonance regions in which the two parameter family has no ...
متن کاملDelayed-Mutual Coupling Dynamics of Lasers: Scaling Laws and Resonances
We consider a model for two lasers that are mutually coupled optoelectronically by modulating the pump of one laser with the intensity deviations of the other. Signal propagation time in the optoelectronic loop causes a significant delay leading to the onset of oscillatory output. Multiscale perturbation methods are used to describe the amplitude and period of oscillations as a function of the ...
متن کاملIsochronal synchronization of delay-coupled systems.
We consider small network models for mutually delay-coupled systems which typically do not exhibit stable isochronally synchronized solutions. We show analytically and numerically that for certain coupling architectures which involve delayed self-feedback to the nodes, the oscillators become isochronally synchronized. Applications are shown for both incoherent pump-coupled lasers and spatiotemp...
متن کامل2 00 5 Dynamics of a nanomechanical resonator coupled to a superconducting single - electron transistor
We present an analysis of the dynamics of a nanomechanical resonator coupled to a superconducting single electron transistor (SSET) in the vicinity of the Josephson quasiparticle (JQP) and double Josephson quasiparticle (DJQP) resonances. For weak coupling and wide separation of dynamical timescales, we find that for either superconducting resonance the dynamics of the resonator is given by a F...
