Abstract

We study the instabilities which occur in linear and ring resonators, with delayed feedback. We use three models for the optical nonlinearities:

1) the coeffcients of absorption α(I) and reflection n(I) are linear functions of the light intensity (Kerr medium);

2) α(N) and n(N) are linear in excitation density N;

3) α(N) and n(N) are given by the Banyai-Koch model for semiconductors.
