Control of chaos in an external-cavity multi-quantumwell laser subjected to dual-wedges and optical dual-feedback

A multi-parameter chaos-control method used to control chaos in an external cavity multi-quantum-well (MQW) laser via the dual-wedges and external delayed optical dual-feedback is presented. The physical model of the laser dynamic is established under the conditions of the dual-wedges and dual-feedback light control. The frequency detuning and stable ranges of the control system are theoretically demonstrated. The optical-length of the feedback light may be adjusted by shifting horizontally or sliding the dual-wedges relatively in the external optical road, which will alter the delaying time and feedback intensity of the dual-feedback light. Accordingly, the multi-parameter chaos-control of the optical dual-feedback may be achieved physically. The numerical simulations approve that the chaotic laser may be controlled into a stable state, a single-periodic state and multi-periodic states, and the controlled periodic pulse power may be increased.
