We report on the realization of a hybrid chaos-based communication scheme using three chaotic semiconductor ring lasers (SRLs). In this scheme, two slave SRLs (S-SRLs) are identically driven by a master SRL (M-SRL) subject to delayed optical feedback. Under proper conditions, the S-SRLs are completely synchronized with each other due to the symmetric operation, and they are also synchronized with the M-SRL through the injection-locking effect. The results also show that a message encrypted through chaos shift keying at the M-SRL end can be successfully decrypted by the two S-SRLs, while the two uncoupled S-SRLs allow for dual-channel chaos communication when both counterpropagating modes of one S-SRL are encoded with a message.
