Abstract

We analyze the microwave dynamics of a semiconductor lasers with optical feedback in the Low Frequency Fluctuation regime. Our experimental measurements, which are based on a statistical approach, are at variance with the solution of the model commonly used to describe this instability. We then discuss the possible reason for the differences and develop an analogy with the turn on transient of a semiconductor laser.
