Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The paper is badly written and suffers from the lack of scientific content.

The current paper looks like a  "VPIcomponentMaker simulation software" tutorial and it is not enough to be published in the scientific journal.

The phenomenon of chaos induced by non-linearity or by external noise, synchronization, and chaotic synchronization, the obtained results are not discussed in the present text.

Reviewer 3 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

In this manuscript, the authors propose and simulate a scheme for chaos synchronization based on five-section semiconductor lasers with matched parameters, for potential application in secure communications. Starting from the dynamical characterization of the proposed configuration, parameter regions of stable, periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic dynamics are identified. The latter are then used for chaos synchronization operation, which is analyzed in terms of signal correlations and sensitivity to current mismatch between the two lasers. The topic of the manuscript is interesting, the methods utilized by the authors and the results are clearly presented. I suggest publication of this manuscript in Entropy.
