Abstract :
We present our work analysing the effects of polarised optical injection in Long-Wavelength Vertical-Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (LW-VCSELs). We review the properties of different phenomena such as polarisation switching (PS) and bistability (PB) as well as on the different nonlinear dynamics (periodic and chaotic) arising in these devices under different cases of polarised optical injection.
