Exponential Recovery of Low Frequency Fluctuations in a Diode Laser with Optical Feedback
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the recovery after each power drop on the chaotic Low Frequency Fluctuations in a semiconductor laser with optical feedback follows an exponential envelope. The time constant for such exponential behavior was experimentally measured. This recovery time constant and the average time interval between consecutive drops are shown to have different dependences when measured as function of the pump current.

Experimental demonstration of suppression of low-frequency fluctuations and stabilization of an external-cavity laser diode.
We demonstrate experimentally all-optical stabilization of a single-mode laser diode subject to external optical feedback operating in the low-frequency fluctuations (LFF) regime, by the technique of applying a second delayed optical feedback. We interpret our results as suppression of LFF through destruction of the antimodes responsible for the LFF crises and stabilization of the laser through...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamics of a Laser Diode With Optical Feedback Systems Subject to Modulation
The nonlinear dynamic behavior of a direct frequency-modulated diode laser with strong optical feedback is examined and compared to a laser diode subject to electro-optically modulated, strong optical feedback. Direct modulation is achieved by sinusoidal modulation of the diode laser injection current. Electro-optic modulation is achieved by applying a sinusoidal voltage to an intracavity phase...

The output state of a broad-area diode (BAD) laser with phase conjugate feedback (PCF) from Rh : BaTiO3 crystal is compared to the same diode laser with conventional optical feedback from a plane mirror. A number of distinct output states, including low frequency fluctuations, are observed for each feedback type. Stable single spectral mode output is achieved with phase conjugate feedback above...
