Abstract
The nonlinear dynamics of a semiconductor laser with an optical feedback is studied using Hilbert phase analysis, which reveals interesting facets of the nonlinear dynamical behavior, including the formation and interaction of external cavity modes with increasing external feedback. Here we report measurements on two illustrative cases with very different dynamics; the laser is first biased just near threshold, and then far above threshold. We observe 2pi phase jumps at intervals that are multiples of the external cavity round-trip time, indicating the interaction and transfer of energy between external cavity modes.
