Limits on the excitable behavior of a semiconductor laser with optical feedback

Recently, it was proposed that semiconductor lasers with optical feedback present a complex behavior that can be described as noise driven excitable. In this work we investigate in which region of parameter space this description is adequate. We conclude that the region of the parameter space in whi...

Sumario:Recently, it was proposed that semiconductor lasers with optical feedback present a complex behavior that can be described as noise driven excitable. In this work we investigate in which region of parameter space this description is adequate. We conclude that the region of the parameter space in which the system displays noise driven excitable behavior is a subset of the region in which presents low frequency fluctuations. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
