Abstract

We consider four different laser arrangements with the nonlinear loops of Kerr type, and discuss square wave pulse operation using modeling based on delay differential equation (DDE) approach. We reduce DDE models to 1D maps, which enable square wave operation and analyze numerically the possible dynamical scenarios of the square wave evolution.
