The coexistence of several stable states for a given set of parameters has been observed in
many natural and experimental systems as well as in theoretical models. This paper gives …

In this chapter, we discuss the oscillation conditions for semiconductor lasers and, then,
derive the rate equations, which are the starting points of the study of chaotic dynamics in …

The synchronization of chatoic semiconductor lasers with optical feedback is studied
numerically in a one-way coupling configuration, in which a small amount of the intensity of …

Tipping points (TP) in climate subsystems are usually thought to occur at a well-defined,
critical forcing parameter threshold, via destabilization of the system state by a single …

Semiconductor laser with feedback is an excellent model for nonlinear optical system which
shows chaotic dynamics. It is interesting not only from the fundamental physical study but …

This paper reports the experimental investigation of two different approaches to random bit
generation based on the chaotic dynamics of a semiconductor laser with optical feedback …

We study the influence of noise in the dynamics of a laser with optical feedback. For
appropriate choices of the feedback parameters, several attractors coexist, and large …

Vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers subjected to weak polarization-insensitive optical
feedback are studied experimentally and theoretically. We find that the feedback induces …

Coupled systems can exhibit an unusual kind of multistability, namely, the coexistence of
infinitely many attractors for a given set of parameters. This extreme multistability is …

We present a numerical study of the pulses displayed by a semiconductor laser with optical
feedback in the short-cavity regime, such that the external cavity round-trip time is shorter …
