Bistability of pulsating intensities for double-locked laser diodes.
Rate equations for semiconductor lasers subjected to simultaneous near-resonant optical injection and microwave current modulation are examined by combined analytical-numerical bifurcation techniques. Simple qualitative criteria are given for a bistable response. These results compare well with experimental measurements.
