Period-doubling bifurcations in detuned lasers with injected signals
Journal Article

· Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
Detuned-lasers systems which have anomalous dispersion effects at the lasing wavelength are predicted to have period-doubling bifurcations for injected light signals. The basic idea is derived from the dependence of the active-region refractive index on population inversion density. The response of detuned lasers with injected light signals is shown to be governed by the generalized Van der Pol equations with external driving forces that are nonlinear in nature. Experimental results with a LiNdP/sub 4/O/sub 12/ miniature solid-state laser are shown, demonstrating period-doubling bifurcations.
