Abstract This Review Article provides an overview of chaos in laser diodes by surveying
experimental achievements in the area and explaining the theory behind the phenomenon …

We study a passively mode-locked semiconductor ring laser subject to optical feedback from
an external mirror. Using a delay differential equation model for the mode-locked laser, we …

Fundamental repetition rates of 3.1 GHz, 7.0 GHz, and 12.5 GHz in passively modelocked
Yb-doped fiber lasers are demonstrated. To the best of our knowledge, the fundamental …

We present a detailed quantitative comparison between a finite-difference traveling wave
(FDTW) model and a delayed differential equation (DDE) approach for the simulation of …

We theoretically study the dynamics and the mode-locking properties of semiconductor
Fabry-Perot lasers with intracavity saturable absorber by using a travelling-wave model and …

We experimentally and theoretically investigate the pulsed emission dynamics of a three
section tapered semiconductor quantum dot laser. The laser output is characterized in terms …

Mode locking is predicted in a nanolaser cavity forming an effective photonic harmonic
potential. The cavity is substantially more compact than a Fabry-Perot resonator with a …

We study the emergence and the stability of temporally localized structures in the output of a
semiconductor laser passively mode locked by a saturable absorber in the long-cavity …

We study analytically and numerically a delay differential model of a passively mode-locked
semiconductor laser subjected to a single-frequency coherent injection. The width of the …

In recent years different setups based on external cavities have been developed, in order to
enhance the performance of pulsed semiconductor mode-locked lasers, namely the peak …
