%X We conduct a theoretical study of the nonlinear optical dynamics of a 2D super-crystal comprising regularly spaced identical semiconductor quantum dots (SQDs), subjected to a resonant continuous wave excitation. A single SQD is considered as three-level ladder-like systems involving the ground, one-exciton and bi-exction states. We show that the super-crystal reveals a rich nonlinear dynamics, exhibiting multistability, self-oscillations and chaos. The behaviour is driven by the retarded SQD-SQD interactions and bi-exciton binding energy.
