Abstract
Novel all-optical schemes for controlling delay-induced and spatio-temporal dynamics in semiconductor laser systems are established. The control techn iques are based on continuous delayed optical feedback. Their successful ap plication for controlling delay-induced chaotic behavior of highspeed semic onductor lasers and stabilization of spatio-temporally chaotic multi-stripe laser arrays and broad-area lasers is demonstrated.
