Delay-induced dynamics and jitter reduction of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers subject to optical feedback

We study a passively mode-locked semiconductor ring laser subject to optical feedback from an external mirror. Using a delay differential equation model for the mode-locked laser, we are able to systematically investigate the resonance effects of the inter-spike interval time of the laser and the ro...
