Topological insight into the non-Arrhenius mode hopping of semiconductor ring lasers
S. Beri, L. Gelens, M. Mestre +6
We investigate both theoretically and experimentally the stochastic switching between two counter-propagating lasing modes of a semiconductor ring laser. Experimentally, the reside…

A phase-space approach to directional switching in semiconductor ring lasers
L. Gelens, G. Van der Sande, S. Beri +1
We show that a topological investigation of the phase space of a Semiconductor Ring Laser can be used to devise switching schemes which are alternative to optical pulse injection o…

Exploring multi-stability in semiconductor ring lasers: theory and experiment
L. Gelens, S. Beri, G. Van der Sande +4
We report the first experimental observation of multi-stable states in a single-longitudinal mode semiconductor ring laser. We show how the operation of the device can be steered t…
