Bistability and All-Optical Memory in Dual-Mode Diode Lasers With Time-Delayed Optical Feedback

A proposal for an all-optical memory based on a bistability of single-mode states in a dual-mode diode laser with time-delayed optical feedback is presented. The system is modeled using a multimode extension of the Lang-Kobayashi equations with injected optical pulses. We uncover the bifurcation str...
