The stability analysis and the modulation effect on a Bragg acoustooptic bistable system

Modulation effects on an acoustooptic hybrid bistable system that is based on Bragg-type diffraction are analyzed. The dynamic and stationary equations describing the system are derived, and the parameters for bistability are given. The boundary for instability is drawn in an output intensity and a delay-time phase plane. When the input intensity undergoes a sinusoidal modulation, the appearance of frequency locking, period doubling bifurcation to chaos, and resonance phenomena in this system is predicted.<
