Nonlinear Dynamics of Coupled Laser Systems

Abstract

This final technical report summarizes the results of research supported by the Office of Naval Research from October 1, 1995 to March 31, 1999, at the School of Physics, Georgia Institute of Technology. The research has encompassed a broader range of topics than was originally in the original proposal. The topics investigated were as follows. (a) Dynamics of coupled laser systems and arrays. (b) Wave propagation in nonlinear media and four wave mixing in optical fibers. (c) Transmission of polarized light through a single mode fiber with random fluctuations of birefringence. (d) Nonlinear dynamics of erbium doped fiber lasers and application to synchronization and communication.
