Towards Interband Cascade lasers on InP Substrate [PDF]
In this study, we propose designs of an interband cascade laser (ICL) active region able to emit in the application-relevant mid infrared (MIR) spectral range and to be grown on an InP substrate. This is a long-sought solution as it promises a combination of ICL advantages with mature and cost-effective epitaxial technology of fabricating materials and

PAS-based isotopologic analysis of highly concentrated methane
Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) is typically used for the detection of trace gases. In this way, mixtures of short-chain hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane or propane can be analyzed with detection limits in the range of parts per million (ppm) or ...
