A significant narrowing of the longitudinal-mode spectrum of continuous-wave visible gain-guided diode lasers was achieved by using an external cavity bounded by a phase conjugate mirror. Longitudinal-mode discrimination was further improved by inserting a thin étalon in the external cavity. With this technique, the coherence length of the laser beam has been increased by a factor of 4 and the emission wavelength was tunable over a range of 1.4 nm, at constant temperature.

An experimental investigation of the temporal dynamics of a diode laser subject to optical feedback from an external cavity containing a cell filled with cesium vapor has been performed. Peculiar dynamic regimes, such as self-pulsing, low-dimensional, and high-dimensional chaos, characterized by a new time scale, much longer than the time scales of all instabilities taking place in diode lasers under standard feedback conditions, have been identified.
