Pulse-timing symmetry breaking in an excitable optical system with delay
arXiv:2006.11010 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.103.012210
Abstract
Excitable systems with delayed feedback are important in areas from biology to neuroscience and optics. They sustain multistable pulsing regimes with different number of equidistant pulses in the feedback loop. Experimentally and theoretically, we report on the pulse-timing symmetry breaking of these regimes in an optical system. A bifurcation analysis unveils that this originates in a resonance phenomenon and that symmetry-broken states are stable in large regions of the parameter space. These results have impact in photonics for e.g. optical computing and versatile sources of optical pulses.
