30 years of the quantum cascade laser [PDF]

Communications Physics
It was January 1994, when the first quantum cascade laser (QCL) displayed laser action in Bell Laboratories. During these 30 years the QCL evolved incessantly, from a lab curiosity to the main on-chip source of coherent radiation in the Mid-IR and THz ...

Comparison of Physical and System Factors Impacting Hydration Sensing in Leaves Using Terahertz Time-Domain and Quantum Cascade Laser Feedback Interferometry Imaging [PDF]

Sensors, 2023
To reduce the water footprint in agriculture, the recent push toward precision irrigation management has initiated a sharp rise in photonics-based hydration sensing in plants in a non-contact, non-invasive manner.

Quantum walk comb in a dual waveguide quantum cascade laser [PDF]

Nature Communications
Ring quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) have recently demonstrated very stable active comb formation in the form of a quantum walk comb which takes advantage of very short gain recovery mechanisms, inducing liquid properties to the light.

Continuous-wave GaAs/AlGaAs quantum cascade laser at 5.7 THz [PDF]

Nanophotonics
Design strategies for improving terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) in the 5–6 THz range are investigated numerically and experimentally, with the goal of overcoming the degradation in performance that occurs as the laser frequency approaches ...

Competition between Entrainment Phenomenon and Chaos in a Quantum-Cascade Laser under Strong Optical Reinjection

Photonics, 2022
The topic of external optical feedback in quantum-cascade lasers is relevant for stability and beam-properties considerations. Albeit less sensitive to external optical feedback than other lasers, quantum-cascade lasers can exhibit several behaviors ...

Coherent averaging quantum cascade laser based dual-comb spectrometer with near infrared light illumination control [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
We present a dual-comb spectrometer based on quantum cascade lasers operating at 7.7 µm with a stabilization scheme that enables coherent averaging. We show that by illuminating a low cost near-infrared light source of the front facet of the quantum ...
