The lasers are unidirectionally coupled via their optical fields. Our experimental and numerical studies demonstrate that the relative optical feedback phase is of decisive importance: a characteristic synchronization scenario evolves under variation of the relative optical-feedback phase mediating cyclically between chaos synchronization in conjunction with coherent fields, and uncorrelated states in conjunction with incoherent fields. As a key result, we propose, and numerically demonstrate, a novel ON/OFF phase shift keying method opening up new perspectives for applications in communication systems using chaotic carriers.
