Impact Statement:
Two sets of contrasting experiments were conducted with temperature variations of 0.5 oC and 0.1 oC, respectively, to verify the influence of temperature on chaotic signals. The corresponding relationship between temperature and the peak value of the fourth correlation peak in the autocorrelation graph was obtained, enabling the demodulation of chaotic signals. This research holds promising applications in the field of secure communication using chaotic systems.
Abstract:
Thermal modulation of a chaotic fire laser by using a phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating (PS-FBG) is proposed. In this chaotic laser system, a double-ring resonator model is employed, leveraging the laser self-mixing method. Specifically, one of the rings serves as the laser resonator cavity, while the other ring acts as the cavity for injecting optical feedback. A PS-FBG is setting in the laser resonant optical path to select and limit the dominant frequency of laser signals. The laser system enters chaotic state through adjusting the intensities of optical feedback self-mixing. The temperature of the PS-FBG can be changed at 26–70 °C in stepping of 0.5 °C to control the chaotic laser. According to the experimental results, the chaotic signal has a highly sensitive dynamic response to the temperature change of PS-FBG. An easy method for dynamic modulation changes of chaotic laser signal is provided, the system has great potential application value in the FBG sensing, optical storage and information transfer of chaotic laser communication.
