Generation of chaotic microwave pulses with the help of passive synchronization of spin wave self-modulation frequencies in self-oscillatory ring systems

Passive synchronization (PS) of spin wave self-modulation frequencies of a chaotic microwave signal has been observed for the first time in a self-oscillatory ring system involving a nonlinear passive element with saturable absorption. The development of PS led to the generation of a periodic train of chaotic microwave pulses with an off/duty ratio exceeding 20. It is established that the repetition period of chaotic microwave pulses can be controlled by changing gain in the ring system.
