(last updated on 2024/04/24)Abstract:
We stabilize unstable periodic orbits of a fast diode resonator driven at 10.1 MHz (corresponding to a drive period under 100 ns) using extended time-delay autosynchronization. Stabilization is achieved by feedback of an error signal that is proportional to the difference between the value of a state variable and an infinite series of values of the state variable delayed in time by integral multiples of the period of the orbit. The technique is easy to implement electronically and it has an all-optical counterpart that may be useful for stabilizing the dynamics of fast chaotic lasers. We show that increasing the weights given to temporally distant states enlarges the domain of control and reduces the sensitivity of the domain of control on the propagation delays in the feedback loop. We determine the average time to obtain control as a function of the feedback gain and identify the mechanisms that destabilize the system at the boundaries of the domain of control. A theoretical stability analysis of a model of the diode resonator in the presence of time-delay feedback is in good agreement with the experimental results for the size and shape of the domain of control.
