Interband Cascade and Quantum Cascade Ring Lasers

Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 2020
Quantum cascade and interband cascade lasers are fabricated into surface and substrate emitting coherent light sources and detectors. We report about latest achievements in terms of power, temperature and dynamic performance of on-chip sensing systems.

Microcavity-Stabilized Quantum Cascade Laser

Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, 2016
A CaF2 whispering gallery mode microresonator is used for frequency stabilization and linewidth narrowing of a mid-IR quantum cascade laser. Sub-Doppler recording of a CO2 transition demonstrates the suitability of the system for high-resolution spectroscopy.

Quantum Cascade Lasers

2013
THz sources are the fundamental requirement for THz technology even for passive detection systems where sources are required for heterodyne detection to improve detectivity. A review is given for one such THz source, the quantum cascade laser. Quantum cascade lasers are unipolar, intersubband photon emitters that can be tuned through the width of ...

Microcavity‐Stabilized Quantum Cascade Laser

Laser & Photonics Reviews, 2015
Narrow‐linewidth lasers are key elements in optical metrology and spectroscopy. Spectral purity of these lasers determines accuracy of the measurements and quality of collected data. Solid state and fiber lasers are stabilized to relatively large and complex external optical cavities or narrow atomic and molecular transitions to improve their spectral ...

SILICON-GERMANIUM QUANTUM-CASCADE LASERS

International Journal of High Speed Electronics and Systems, 2003
The prospects and advantages of silicon germanium quantum cascade lasers are discussed, from both physical and technological perspectives. A range of Si/SiGe intersubband laser configurations are discussed, for both edge and surface emission. Recent experimental activity on mid- and far-infrared devices is reviewed, and the value of detailed ...

Quantum Cascade Lasers

2017
The quantum cascade laser represents an important accomplishment in quantum photonics, combining quantum excitation of the electromagnetic field, electron transport and controllable quantum mechanical tunneling all working cooperatively in a single device. In cascade lasers, the carriers are “recycled” from one stage to the next, so that the evacuation

Frequency Characterization of a Terahertz Quantum-Cascade Laser

IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2007
In this paper, the frequency characteristics of a tera-hertz quantum-cascade laser (QCL) operating around 2.5-THz in the pulsed regime have been studied by means of a heterodyne detection by using an optically pumped molecular laser as the local oscillator.

Quantum Cascade Laser

2011
Aquantum cascade laser contains active regions and conducting regions in turn. An active region contains three electron subbands. An electron injected into the upper subband undergoes a stimulated transition to the lower subband and reaches, after a nonradiative relaxation process, the lowest subband.

Quantum cascade lasers

2019
In this chapter, we present a brief overview of the QCL technology with an emphasis on the commercially important 3 μm to 12 μm spectral region covering the infrared fingerprint spectral region and the two infrared atmospheric windows (3 to 5 μm and 8 to 12 μm).
