Summary:
We numerically studied the chaotic dynamics of a laser diode (LD) with optical injection, where an additional signal is applied to the drive current of the master LD. We compared the effect of using a chaotic signal and a band-limited pseudorandom signal having a similar spectrum to the chaotic signal as the applied signal. We showed that the spectrum of the applied signal is a factor affecting the orbital instability of an LD system, and that the use of a pseudorandom signal as the applied signal more greatly enhances the orbital instability than the use of a chaotic signal.
