In this paper, we propose using paraxial matrix optics to describe a ring-phase conjugated resonator that includes an intracavity chaos-generating element; this allows the system to behave in phase space as a Bogdanov Map. Explicit expressions for the intracavity chaos-generating matrix elements were obtained. Furthermore, computer calculations for several parameter configurations were made; rich dynamic behavior among periodic orbits high periodicity and chaos were observed through bifurcation diagrams. These results confirm the direct dependence between the parameters present in the intracavity chaos-generating element.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
