Message encoding and decoding using chaotic external-cavity diode lasers

Synchronization of chaotic external-cavity diode lasers has been studied in a master-slave configuration. A message is encoded into the chaotic master laser by amplitude modulation and transmitted to the slave laser. A scheme for decoding the message at the slave is demonstrated.
