Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Chaotic Dynamics With Defense Applications

Abstract

This was an AFOSR Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 1997. The research objectives were: (1) Chaotic scattering and applications to optical micro-lasing cavities; (2) Inducing chaos in electronic circuits; (3) Signal enhancement using stochastic resonance for anti-jamming; (4) Dynamics of semiconductor lasers and communicating with chaos. These were directly suggested by Air Force scientists or motivated by applications in Air Force missions. All objective were completed and results were published in over 70 refereed-journal papers. The PECASE helped support five post-doctoral fellows and graduate six Ph.D. and four Master students. During the project period the PT was elected as a Fellow of the American Physical Society, gave 50 invited lectures, and provided consultations to Air Force Research Laboratories.
