摘要
Dynamic states in mutual-coupled mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers(QCLs) were numerically investigated in the parameter space of injection strength and detuning frequency based on the Lang-Kobayashi equations model. Three types of period-one states were found, with different periods of injection time delay τ_(inj), 2τ_(inj), and reciprocal of the detuning frequency. Besides, square-wave, quasi-period, pulse-burst and chaotic oscillations were also observed. It is concluded that external-cavity periodic dynamics and optical modes beating are the mainly periodic dynamics. The interaction of the two periodic dynamics and the high-frequency dynamics stimulated by strong injection induces the dynamic states evolution.This work helps to understand the dynamic behaviors in QCLs and shows a new way to mid-infrared wide-band chaotic laser.
