The authors also demonstrate that this optoelectronic circuit is well described as a Lie´nard’s oscillator. The synchronisation capabilities of the circuit have potentially novel functions for optical communications systems including clock recovery, clock division and data encryption.engResonant tunneling diodeLaser diodeSynchronisationChaosSynchronisation and chaos in a laser diode driven by a resonant tunnelling diodejournal article2012-05-11
