Reverse bifurcation and dynamics modification in an optically injected laser diode

Abstract

Nonlinear dynamics studies have used laser diodes in a variety of external cavity and injection conditions as model systems for the transition to chaos.1 Most of these studies have concentrated on the transition to chaos as the strength of some parameter is increased. Chaotic dynamics can be observed in a laser diode under strong external optical injection. We observe that the chaotic dynamics can be strictly bounded between two optical injection levels. Both from above and below, the transition to chaos follows a period doubling route. This behavior can be modelled using a rate equation approach coupling a single-mode oscillating optical field with the carrier density.
