Abstract
We propose a theoretical model describing the radiation dynamics in a solid-state coupled-cavity ring laser. Based on the numerical simulation conducted within the framework of this model, we investigate antiphase harmonic oscillations of counterpropagating wave intensities. It is shown that the amplitudes and frequencies of self-modulation oscillations in cases of in-phase and antiphase cavity couplings differ significantly. In the case of antiphase coupling, a new possibility of increasing the scale factor with increasing perimeter of the additional cavity is found. The dependence of the frequency of self-modulation oscillations on the optical nonreciprocity produced in the main cavity by a constant magnetic field is studied experimentally. Comparison of experimental and theoretical results shows good agreement between theory and experiment.
