Bandwidth enhancement of chaotic signal generated from chaotic laser by using continuous-wave optical injection is experimentally demonstrated. A distributed feedback semiconductor laser with optical feedback is employed as the chaotic laser. The bandwidth of the chaotic signal is enhanced roughly three times by optical injection into the chaotic laser compared with the bandwidth when there is no optical injection.

We propose a novel technique for chaotic correlation optical time domain reflectometer with millimeter and range- independent spatial resolution. Utilizing chaotic waveforms generated from a laser diode with an optical fiber ring feedback, a proof-of-concept experiment is demonstrated with 6-cm spatial resolution in the 0 ~ 140 m range, which is limited by the bandwidth of the real-time oscilloscope used.

We experimentally and numerically demonstrate a route to bandwidth-enhanced chaos that is induced by an additional optical injection for a chaotic laser diode with optical feedback. The measured and calculated optical spectra consistently reveal that the mechanism of bandwidth enhancement is the interaction between the injection and chaotic laser field via beating. The bandwidth can be maximized only when the injected light is detuned into the edge of the optical spectrum of the chaotic laser field and the beating frequency exceeds the original bandwidth. The simulated dynamics maps indicate that 20 GHz broadband chaos can be obtained by commonly used laser diodes.

We propose a method to locate precisely faults in wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) passive optical network (PON) by using a wavelength tunable chaotic laser. The chaotic laser consists of a multiple-longitudinal-mode Fabry-Perot (FP) laser diode whose modes match the channels of WDM-PON, and an optical feedback loop including a filter. The loop feeds a proportion of light of one mode that passes through the filter back into laser cavity to generate chaotic light. By adjusting the filter frequency, we can tune the wavelength of the chaotic light, and diagnose the corresponding branch of WDM-PON. We demonstrate a proof-of-concept experiment for detection of three ITU channels. Fault location is realized by correlating the back-reflected light with its time-delayed duplicate. The results show that spatial resolution of 2 cm and dynamic range of about 20.8dB can be achieved. In addition, we have experimentally studied the effects of the strength level and wavelength mismatching of the feedback light on the chaotic output of the FP laser.

We propose a scheme of all-optical random number generator (RNG), which consists of an ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) chaotic laser, an all-optical sampler and an all-optical comparator. Free from the electric-device bandwidth, it can generate 10Gbit/s random numbers in our simulation. The high-speed bit sequences can pass standard statistical tests for randomness after all-optical exclusive-or (XOR) operation.

We demonstrate experimentally and numerically a method using the incoherent delayed self-interference (DSI) of chaotic light from a semiconductor laser with optical feedback to generate wideband chaotic signal. The results show that, the DSI can eliminate the domination of laser relaxation oscillation existing in the chaotic laser light and therefore flatten and widen the power spectrum. Furthermore, the DSI depresses the time-delay signature induced by external cavity modes and improves the symmetry of probability distribution by more than one magnitude. We also experimentally show that this DSI signal is beneficial to the random number generation.

We report a prototype of high-speed real-time physical random bit generator based on a chaotic laser. The chaotic laser consists of a semiconductor laser with optical feedback in fiber external cavity configuration. The chaotic laser intensity signal is quantized into binary stream by differential comparison which makes the amplitude distribution symmetric with respect to zero mean value. An exclusive-OR gate operation between two raw binary streams from the chaotic signal and its delayed signal is used to overcome the influences of the weak periodicity induced by the external cavity resonance inherent in the chaotic laser. After exclusive-OR operation, the prototype can generate a single fast random bit stream in real time without any off-line processing procedures. Its bit rate can be handily and continuously tuned up to 4.5 Gbps by a trigger clock. Experiment results demonstrate that our generator possesses high-quality randomness with verified by the three-standard-deviation criterion and industry-benchmark statistical tests.

External-cavity lasers are usually used for chaos encryption in optical chaos-based communication systems. The external-cavity round-trip time (the time delay in the laser dynamics) is often regarded as an additional key to encode messages, which is a critical security parameter. The feasibility of identifying the time delay has been a crucial issue in chaotic optical communication. Some researchers propose that the time delay can be hidden by modulating the value of feedback strength or increasing the number of feedback cavities. In this paper, we experimentally and numerically demonstrate that the time delay signatures cannot be concealed in optical feedback semiconductor lasers. Whether single or double optical feedback, the time delay signatures can all be identified by the power spectrum analysis method. Furthermore, adjusting the feedback strength, the pumping current and the time-delay value, we find that the extraction of the time delay signatures still cannot be influenced.

We experimentally realize a robust real-time random number generator by differentially comparing the signal from a chaotic semiconductor laser and its delayed signal through a 1-bit analog-to-digital converter. The probability density distribution of the output chaotic signal based on the differential comparison method possesses an extremely small coefficient of Pearsons median skewness (1.5 × 10⁻⁶), which can yield a balanced random sequence much easily than the previously reported method that compares the signal from the chaotic laser with a certain threshold value. Moveover, we experimently demonstrate that our method can stably generate good random numbers at rates of 1.44 Gbit/s with excellent immunity from external perturbations while the previously reported method fails.

Chaotic laser with a flat power spectrum up to 32.3 GHz has been generated by using a dual-wavelength optically injected Fabry-Pérot laser diode with optical feedback. The Fabry-Pérot laser diode with fiber ring cavity is utilized to generate the chaotic light. The bandwidth of the chaotic laser, due to dual-wavelength optical injection, is enhanced roughly four times as much as that of the chaotic laser without optical injection.
