As described in the previous experiments, the intensity components in the orthogonal directions are modulated with a period of the round-trip time or twice. Different pulse shapes reveal that the seed field from the spontaneous emission is not uniform and seems to be stochastic for each pulse.展开更多

The work shows that the feedback rate η, polarizer angle Op, and filter bandwidth A have an obvious influence on the TDS. The evolution maps of the TDS in parameter space （η, A） and （ηθp） are simulated for searching the chaos with weak TDS. Furthermore, compared with a VCSEL with polarization-preserved filtered optical feedback and a VCSEL with variable-polarization mirror optical feedback, this VPFOF-VCSEL shows superiority in TDS suppression.展开更多

The PTM plays the role of external mirror, which controls the feedback strength and coupling strength. We numerically simulate this system by establishing a visible SIMULINK model. The results demonstrate that the anticipation synchronization is achieved and it can tolerate some extent frequency detuning. Moreover, the system shows similar chaos-pass filtering effect on unidireetionally coupled system even both VCSELs are modulated. This system allows simultaneously bidirectional secure message transmission on public channels.展开更多

The model can be implemented in conventional SPICE-like circuit simulators, including HSPICE, and be used to simulate the key features of VCSEL. The results compare favorably with experimental data from a device reported in the literature. The simple empirical model is especially suitable for Computer Aided Design （CAD）, and greatly simplifies the design of optical communication systems.展开更多

The numerical results show that the mesa size of the top mirror strongly influences the temperature distribution inside the etched mesa V CSEL. Under a certain driving voltage, with decreasing mesa size, the location o f the maximal temperature moves towards the p-contact metal, the temperature in the core region of the active layer rises greatly, and the thermal characterist ics of the etched mesa VCSELs will deteriorate.展开更多
