Experimental characterization of hopping dynamics in a multistable fiber laser

Abstract: We demonstrate experimental evidence of noise-induced attractor hopping in a multistable fiber laser. Multistate hopping dynamics displays complex statistical properties characterized by nontrivial scalings. When hopping is encountered between two states, the dynamics of the system is characterized by the -32 power law for the probability distribution of periodic windows versus their length, just as in the case of two-state on-off intermittency. A surprising noise saturation effect is found: average output noi… Show more

“…The system seemingly has four amplitude attractors; therefore, the hopping between them (with appropriate frequency and level of background noise) can lead to surpassing of RW threshold. This situation apparently was similar to the situation that observed during pump modulation [8]. Probably, this happens because of the intrinsic low-frequency modulation of a signal power (see Fig.…”

“…This makes this device very promising for many applications where smallamplitude external modulation is required to control the laser dynamics. The mathematical model and experimental arrangement of the EDFL used in this work have been developed by Pisarchik et al [6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…The EDFL with coherent radiation at the wavelength of 1560 nm is an excellent device for applications in medicine, remote sensing, reflectometry, and all-optical fiber communications networks [1,2]. Rare-doped fiber lasers subjected to external modulation from semiconductor pump lasers are known to exhibit chaotic dynamics [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Besides, a very important advantage of the EDFL working in a chaotic regimen is its application to the development of basic logic gates [13], since it can process different logical gates and implements diverse arithmetic operations.…”

“…48 A crucial concept used to quantify the time that it takes on average to leave a particular stable state is the mean first passage time or Kramer's law. [49][50][51] Noise-induced critical transitions appear, e.g., in laser systems, 52 in neuron populations, 53 or in the climate system. 54 Different aspects, which are related to such noise-induced dynamics in multistable systems, are outlined in Refs.…”
