β¦ Synopsis
Stochastic resonance (SR) induced by the signal modulation is investigated, by introducing the signal-modulated gain into a single-mode laser system. Using the linear approximation method, we detailedly calculate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a gain-noise model of the single-mode laser, taking the cross-correlation between the quantum noise and pump noise into account. We find that, SR appears in the dependence of the SNR on the intensities of the quantum and the pump noises when the correlation coefficient between both the noises is negative; moreover, when the cross-correlation between the two noises is strongly negative, SR exhibits a resonance and a suppression versus the gain coefficient, meanwhile, the singlepeaked SR and multi-peaked SR occur in the behaviors of the SNR as functions of the loss coefficient and the deterministic steady-state intensity.

Owing to the considerable virtues of semiconductor lasers for applications, they have become the main optical source for fiber communication systems recently. The behavior of stochastic resonance (SR) in direct-modulated semiconductor laser systems is investigated in this article. Considering the ca
The stochastic resonance phenomenon is studied in a single-mode laser system driven by correlated multiplicative and additive colored noises without modulation by external periodic force. We detect that there are multiple extrema (maximum) in the curve of the mean output laser intensity versus the m
We studied the lasing characteristics of resonance modes in a thin dye-doped dielectric ring cavity made on the inner wall of a cylindrical capillary. Lasing spectra corresponding to the whispering gallery modes (WGMs) and waveguide modes were addressed by investigating the spectral changes before a
We present a new concept for a single mode laser diode. This concept is based on the strong coupling between the laser mode propagating in the active region and a surface mode on top of the laser diode. By this we achieve both a single-mode-like operation and a surface emission. We present a model w
