Abstract

A linear analysis is made of the stability of the limit cycle in a Q-switched laser with continuous delayed feedback which controls the onset of instability. The Stokes generalization of the Floquet theory for the functional equations was used to derive a general equation to determine the Andronov-Hopf bifurcations and also saddle-node and subharmonic bifurcations. Conditions for stabilization of T-periodic regimes were determined and possible destabilizing effects introduced by the feedback were identified.
