Dynamical characteristics of nano‐lasers subject to optical injection and phase conjugate feedback

Abstract

The dynamics of nano-lasers has been analysed using rate equations which include the Purcell cavity-enhanced spontaneous emission factor F and the spontaneous emission coupling factor β. It is shown that when subject to optical injection and phase conjugate feedback nano-lasers may exhibit remarkably stable small-amplitude oscillations with frequencies of order 300 GHz. Critically it is established that such oscillations persist when the effects of noise are taken into account. The appearance of such high-frequency oscillations is associated with the effective reduction of the carrier lifetime for larger values of the Purcell factor, F, and spontaneous coupling factor, β. The effects of the feedback distance and bias currents are also considered. As the optical injection strength increases for fixed phase conjugate feedback and relatively short feedback distances, the nano-laser displays periodic dynamics and then enters stable locking. As the feedback distance increases the quasi-periodic dynamics dominates. Increased bias current can also induce quasi-periodic behaviour albeit this may be ameliorated by reducing the strength of the phase conjugate feedback. Commented [h1]: In this paper, we didn't add noise. Shall we change it as feedback distance? Yes this is OK

Numerical Analysis of Nonlinear Dynamics Based on Spin-VCSELs with Optical Feedback

“…The nonlinear dynamics of semiconductor lasers (SLs) [1][2][3][4][5][6] has received extensive attention thanks to their high complex dynamical behaviors and the widespread application in fields such as random bit generation [7,8], reservoir computing [9,10], chaos-based optical communications [11][12][13][14], chaotic radar [15,16], and other relevant areas [17][18][19]. Therefore, an in-depth investigation and analysis of the different dynamical regimes is very crucial for the parameter optimization and application exploration in research.…”

Conjugate Symmetric Data Transmission Control Method based on Machine Learning

“…Based on the above analysis, the conjugate symmetric data transmission path is optimized. In the actual data transmission process, the energy consumption between the same distance and different links will be different due to the influence of objective factors, so energy-based the path optimization method adds transmission consumption weights to each link, so that the network can better integrate with the objective environment in which it is located, thereby better improving the reliability of data transmission [11][12][13][14]. The transmission consumption weight matrix is as follows:…”

High-quality random bit generation based on a cascade-coupled nano-laser system

“…Moreover, relevant research on chaotic signal TDS concealment and confidential communication based on NLs has also been reported [38][39][40]. Han and Shore analyzed the dynamics of mutually coupled NLs as well as the behavior of optical feedback and optical injection acting together on NLs [41][42][43]. Jiang et al used an optically injected NL structure to generate broadband chaos without TDS, combining TDS suppression enabled by the NLs and a two-channel transmission technique, the proposed scheme offers enhanced security for message encryption and decryption [44].…”
