Abstract

In this paper, the influences of linewidth enhancement factor on the output characteristics of a semiconductor ring laser (SRL) are numerically investigated. By constructing a master–slave injection model, we discuss the influence of linewidth enhancement factor on the output characteristics of SRL. In addition, the 0–1 chaos test is introduced to study the effects of linewidth enhancement factor, feedback strength, feedback time delay and normalized injection current on the dynamic characteristics of the master laser. Furthermore, a simulation study is carried out on the suppression of time delay characteristics by the linewidth enhancement factor. The results show that selecting a proper linewidth enhancement factor has a significant effect on the chaotic output of SRL, and a larger linewidth enhancement factor is beneficial for the concealment of time delay signature. Such results are beneficial for achieving the security chaos communication and physical random generators.
