Multiparameter bifurcations and mixed-mode oscillations inQ-switchedCO2lasers

Abstract: We study the origin of mixed-mode oscillations and related bifurcations in a fully molecular laser model that describes CO2 monomode lasers with a slow saturable absorber. Our study indicates that the presence of isolas of periodic mixed-mode oscillations, as the pump parameter and the cavity-frequency detuning change, is inherent to Q-switched CO2 monomode lasers. We compare this model, known as the dual four-level model, to the more conventional 3:2 model and to a CO2 laser model for fast saturable absorbers… Show more

“…First, the most familiar adding transitions are the ones mediated by windows of chaos, as frequently observed in mixed-mode oscillations. 21,22 Second, there are mixed-mode oscillations where windows of chaos are totally absent 19,35 (see the previous paragraph). Third, there are the transitions involving concatenated periodic oscillations and nested progressions as described in Figs.…”

“…19 MMOs are very common patterns found in wide classes of nonlinear oscillators, as described by several authors in a focus issue of Chaos dedicated to MMOs 21 and, more recently, e.g., in CO 2 lasers. 22 The BFSO model is governed by ten equations (nine of them independent) and 14 rate constants and is computationally quite demanding to investigate. Thus, we were motivated to look for a simpler model that could provide useful insight with much less burden.…”
