Chaotic microlasers refers to the application of ideas from classical and quantum chaos to the physics and engineering of lasers in which light is confined to sub-millimeter length scales.
- Chaos in optics (the title of this article is much broader than its actual content)
- Chaos in lasers (another general title that reflects the "conventional" concept of laser chaos).
- Microwave billiards and quantum chaos (Stöckmann studied pulse propagation in dielectric ovals, motivated by our work).
