Zero modes are symmetry protected ones whose energy eigenvalues have zero real parts. In Hermitian arrays, they arise as a consequence of the sublattice symmetry, implying that they are dark modes. In non-Hermitian systems, that naturally emerge in gain/loss optical cavities, particle-hole symmetry prevails instead; the resulting zero modes are...

We analyze multi-longitudinal-mode semiconductor lasers experimentally. We show that the intensity of each mode displays large amplitude oscillations but obeys a highly organized antiphase dynamics leading to an almost constant total intensity output. For each mode, regular switching is observed in the megahertz range, while the optical...

In this manuscript we analyze the modal dynamics ofmultimode semiconductor quantum-well lasers. Modal switching is the dominant feature of thedevices analyzed and it obeys a highly organized antiphase dynamics which leads to an almost constanttotal intensity output. For each active mode a regular switching at frequencies offew MHz is observed....
