Summary:
We analyze dynamical similarities observed in semiconductor lasers and resonant tunneling diodes when subjected to optical feedback. Nonlinear dynamics such as high-frequency pulsations are reported in both systems, expressing the influence of the delay time on the devices's behaviours. We study and compare their respective dynamical mechanisms along with the related frequency properties and ranges. The similarities and differences between both systems are discussed in the perspective of evaluating their performances for optical communication and signal generation.
