Abstract

Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) with isotropic optical feedback are studied especially in the so-called low frequency fluctuations regime. Correlation properties between linear polarizations are analyzed both analytically and numerically. The RF spectrum shows a double peak structure close to the external cavity frequency which can be predicted by our adapted Spin-Flip Model (SFM). We provide here numerical evidence of the interplay between modes and anti- modes which are solutions of the stability analysis of the VCSEL with feedback and demonstrate that this interplay is responsible for the double peak structure.
