Theory of Optical Feedback in Semiconductor Lasers

Abstract: A semiconductor laser with optical feedback is an excellent model for generating chaos in its output power and the system has proven to be very useful in practical applications. This chapter concerns the theoretical background for instability and chaos induced by optical feedback in narrow-stripe edge-emitting semiconductor lasers, such as Pabry-Perot lasers, multi-quantum well (MQW) lasers, and distributed feedback (DFB) lasers. Particular dynamics of feedback-induced instability and chaos in semiconductor la… Show more

“…Multiple quantum wells are stacked together in a cascaded structure, forming a potential energy ladder. Excitation of electrons from the ground state to higher energy states occurs within the active layer, and as electrons transit between quantum wells, they emit photons due to resonant tunneling [15,16] Nano QCLs have revolutionized several fields, such as gas sensing, medical diagnostics, laser-based manufacturing, and communication. As the understanding of nanoscale physics and quantum mechanics continues to develop, further advancements in Nano QCLs are anticipated.…”
