Simulation of Antiphase Dynamics in Lasers with Cellular Automata. A Work in Progress [Póster]
Abstract
The classical point of view to study the laser dynamics are the Maxwell-Bloch equations however the CA models are complementary tools that represent an advantage in cases in which the system of differential equations have convergence problems.
