title: Dynamics of periodically forced semiconductor laser with optical feedback.
abstract: Recently it was proposed that semiconductor lasers with optical feedback present a regime where they behave as noise driven excitable units. In this work we report on an experimental study in which we periodically force one of these lasers and we compare the results with the solutions of a simple model. The comparison is based on a topological analysis of experimental and theoretical solutions.
