Complex phenomena in photonics, in particular, dynamical properties of semiconductor
lasers due to delayed coupling, are reviewed. Although considered a nuisance for a long …

Mid-infrared free-space optical communication has a large potential for high speed
communication due to its immunity to electromagnetic interference. However, data security …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the progress in the field of synchronization and
communication with chaotic laser systems. The origin of chaotic dynamics in lasers is …

A critical issue in optical chaos-based communications is the possibility to identify the
parameters of the chaotic emitter and, hence, to break the security. In this paper, we study …

We characterize the chaotic dynamics of semiconductor lasers subject to either optical or
electrooptical feedback modeled by Lang-Kobayashi and Ikeda equations, respectively. This …

In this volume, six review articles which cover a broad range of topics of current interest in
modern optics are included. The first article by S. Saltiel, AA Sukhorukov and YS Kivshar …

The concealment of the time-delay signature (TDS) of chaotic external-cavity lasers is
necessary to ensure the security of optical chaos-based cryptosystems. We show that this …

A novel dual-channel chaotic synchronization configuration is proposed. This system is
constructed on the basis of two unidirectionally coupled vertical-cavity surface-emitting …

We study the dynamics of a ring of unidirectionally coupled autonomous Duffing oscillators.
Starting from a situation where the individual oscillator without coupling has only trivial …

The unpredictability degree and bandwidth properties of chaotic signals generated by
semiconductor lasers subject to dual chaotic optical injections (DCOI) are investigated …
