Bifurcation analysis of a passively mode-locked semiconductor laser with optical feedback — •Lina Jaurigue1 and Kathy Lüdge1,2 — 1Institut für Theoretische Physik, Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, Germany — 2Department of Mathematics, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers can exhibit a rich range of pulsed dynamics. The time scales of these dynamics are related to the roundtrip time of the laser cavity and the recovery times of carriers in the gain and absorber sections of the laser. Adding optical self-feedback to such system can strongly influence these dynamics which then depend crucially on the ratio of the internal time scales to the feedback delay time [1,2]. In this contribution we present an analysis of the dynamics and bifurcations of such a system, which we describe using a system of coupled delay differential equations involving multiple delay times [3,4].
