Abstract :
We investigate stability of frequency-domain solutions for Kerr-nonlinear structures consisting of coupled microring resonators in all-pass filter configuration. We present difference equations that describe time-domain evolution of optical pulses inside the structure. We show numerical examples that demonstrate existence of self-pulsing and chaotic solutions.
