Feedback insensitivity in a self-chaotic microcavity laser
Abstract:
Insensitivity to external optical feedback is experimentally demonstrated in a self-chaotic deformed square microcavity laser for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. Both the optical and radio frequency (RF) spectra of the microlaser remain unaffected for external optical feedback with feedback strength as high as 9.9 dB. In addition, the autocorrelation function curve exhibits no time-delayed peaks. The insensitivity makes the self-chaotic microcavity laser promising for applications in feedback-insensitive optical sources.

Feedback significantly modifies the gain of a control system. The gain of a system without feedback is altered by a factor of one plus GH, where G represents...
01:26Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
