Abstract

Isochrony and time leadership was studied in the synchronized excitable behavior of coupled chaotic diode lasers. Each unit of the system had chaos due to feedback with a fixed delay time. The inter-units coupling signal had a second, independent, characteristic time. Synchronized excitable spikes present isochronous, time leading or time lagging behavior whose stability is shown to depend on a simple relation between the feedback and the coupling times. Experiments on the synchronized low frequency fluctuations of two optically coupled semiconductor lasers and numerical calculations with coupled laser equations verify the predicted stability conditions for synchronization. Synchronism with intermittent time leadership exchange was also observed and characterized.
