Monte Carlo study of carrier-light coupling in terahertz quantum cascade lasers

open access: yes, 2010
We present a method for self-consistently including the optical cavity field into Monte Carlo-based carrier transport simulations. This approach allows for an analysis of the actual lasing operation in quantum cascade lasers, considering effects such as ...

Thermal analysis of mid-infrared quantum-cascade lasers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present a theoretical thermal analysis of mid-infrared quantum-cascade lasers (QCLs) using a two-dimensional anisotropic heat diffusion model. Several InP-based devices are simulated over a range of operating conditions in order to extract temperature-

Quantum Transport Simulation of High-Power 4.6-μm Quantum Cascade Lasers

open access: yesPhotonics, 2016
We present a quantum transport simulation of a 4.6- μ m quantum cascade laser (QCL) operating at high power near room temperature. The simulation is based on a rigorous density-matrix-based formalism, in which the evolution of the single-electron ...

Microring quantum cascade surface emitting lasers

open access: yesAPL Photonics
We miniaturize a vertically coupled in-plane whispering gallery mode cavity incorporating a quantum cascade gain medium, aiming to realize the mid-infrared counterpart to the vertical cavity surface emitting laser.

Multi-Spectral Quantum Cascade Lasers on Silicon With Integrated Multiplexers

open access: yesPhotonics, 2019
Multi-spectral midwave-infrared (mid-IR) lasers are demonstrated by directly bonding quantum cascade epitaxial gain layers to silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguides with arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) multiplexers.

Tree array quantum cascade laser

open access: yesOptics Express, 2009
A monolithic coupling scheme for mid-infrared quantum cascade laser arrays is investigated with respect to brightness enhancement. The tree-shaped resonator enables parallel coupling of six laser elements into a single element by means of several Y-junctions.

High-Power Directional Emission from Microlasers with Chaotic Resonators

open access: yes, 1998
High-power and highly directional semiconductor cylinder-lasers based on an optical resonator with deformed cross section are reported. In the favorable directions of the far-field, a power increase of up to three orders of magnitude over the ...

Quantum dot cascade laser: Arguments in favor

open access: yes, 2007
Quantum cascade lasers are recognized as propitious candidates for future terahertz optoelectronics. Here we demonstrate several definite advantages of quantum dot cascade structures over quantum well devices, which suffer fundamental performance ...
