Abstract
It is shown that tailored optoelectronic Feedback can be used for sele cting periodic dynamical output from external cavity semiconductor las ers undergoing a period doubling bifurcation cascade to chaos. Such op toelectronic feedback can effectively suppress or invert the bifurcati on sequence so that low order periodic motion can be resonantly excite d from high order periodic or chaotic dynamics. The application of the technique in chaotic communications and its role in chaos control is indicated.
