Conceptual design improvements for terahertz quantum cascade lasers needed for molecule detection
Security and gas sensing applications such as the nonintrusive detection of concealed weapons and the rapid detection of chemicals and explosives require a failsafe identification of complex molecules. Since many excitation lines of complex molecules lie in the terahertz (THz) regime of the light spectrum, these applications require coherent and intense THz light [1]. Promising candidates for e...
متن کاملBroadly tunable terahertz generation in mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers.
Room temperature, broadly tunable, electrically pumped semiconductor sources in the terahertz spectral range, similar in operation simplicity to diode lasers, are highly desired for applications. An emerging technology in this area are sources based on intracavity difference-frequency generation in dual-wavelength mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers. Here we report terahertz quantum cascade las...

Device-performances of 3.7 THz indirect-pumping quantumcascade lasers are demonstrated in an InGaAs/InAlAs material system grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy. The lasers show a low threshold-current-density of ~420 A/cm and a peak output power of ~8 mW at 7 K, no sign of parasitic currents with recourse to well-designed coupled-well injectors in the indirect pump scheme, and a maximum o...
