High-temperature performance and broad continuous tunability of terahertz quantum-cascade lasers

High-temperature performance and broad continuous tunability of terahertz quantum-cascade lasers

We demonstrate a terahertz quantum-cascade laser (QCL) operating significantly above the temperature of hv/kB, which had so-far been been an empirical limitation for the maximum operating temperature of these devices. With a design that employs a new scattering-assisted injection scheme, a 1.8 THz Q...
