SUBHARMONIC BIFURCATION AND CHAOS IN A PERIODICALLY MODULATED CO-MGF2 LASER
We have investigated the nonlinear dynamics of a single longitudinal mode Co:MgF2 laser by modulating the pump laser intensity. We measured frequency- and time-domain intensity as a function of the modulation frequency and amplitude, and observed a series of subharmonic bifurcations and chaotic beha...
