The physical model of controlling chaos produced via modulating the current of semiconductor laser is presented under the condition of OPF. We find the physical mechanism that the nonlinear gain coefficient and linewidth enhance- ment factor of the laser are affected by OPF so that the dynamical behaviour of the system can be efficiently controlled. Chaos is controlled into a single-periodic state, a dual-periodic state, a tri-periodic state, a quadr-periodic state, a pentaperiodic state, and the laser emitting powers are increased by OPF in simulations. Lastly, another chaos-control method with modulating the amplitude of the feedback light is presented and numerically simulated to control chaotic laser into multi-periodic states.展开更多

A Fabry-Perot(F-P) cavity fiber laser and an optical-electrical feedback branch are coupled together to construct an optoelectronic oscillator, where the F-P cavity fiber laser serves as a light source, and a modulator is placed in the laser cavity to implement reciprocating modulation, which simultaneously splits the laser cavity into two parts and forms a dual-loop configuration. To complete an optoelectronic oscillator, part of optical signal is output from the F-P cavity to implement the feedback modulation, which constructs the third cavity. Since only the oscillation signal satisfies the requirements of all the three cavities, a single-mode oscillation can be finally achieved. Three resonant cavities are successfully designed without adding more optoelectronic devices, and the side-modes can be well suppressed with low cost. The oscillation condition is theoretically analyzed. In the experimental demonstration, a 20 GHz single longitudinal mode microwave signal is successfully obtained.展开更多
