Abstract
A successive subharmonic modulation cascade of self-sustained relaxation oscillations in an inverse order leading to optical turbulence in detuned lasers with compound-cavity configurations is predicted. A brief experimental result which supports the predicted subharmonic modulation phenomenon is shown. The suppression effect of optical turbulence by external light injection, which is important for practical applications, is demonstrated theoretically.Keywords
