Y. Komatsu, T. Ebisawa and S. Komatsu: Broadband chaos signal from asynchronous master-slave LD transmitter, Extended Abstracts (Optics and Photonics Japan 2009) (2009) 408-409. (25pG5)

The relationship between laser bandwidth and optical feedback/injected output of master-slave laser diode (LD) transmitter is investigated by numerical simulation. It is shown that broadband chaotic signal is obtained from the transmitter when the master and slave LDs are asynchronous.
