Two regimes of synchronization in unidirectionally coupled semiconductor lasers.
We analyze unidirectionally coupled semiconductor lasers in the feedback/injection scheme to determine their synchronization performance. As the mismatch between the two lasers increases, there is a transition from complete synchronization for identical lasers to time lag synchronization which is only partial. This corresponds to a continuous change of the global minimum that becomes a relative minimum of the synchronization error function and vice versa.
