Abstract

The dynamics of actively mode-locked laser is investigated and the results of numerical simulations are presented. Different regimes corresponding to the relaxation oscillations and spiking are observed depending on the noise level and frequency detuning. The numerical results demonstrate in detail the processes of destroying synchronization and pulse-train instabilities.
