Magnetically assisted quantum cascade laser emitting from 740 GHz to 1.4 THz

In this paper we show that by applying a perpendicular magnetic field to a quantum cascade structure it is possible to enhance the gain of different optical transitions. The combination of magnetic confinement with a broadband, cutoff-free optical resonator allows the demonstration of laser action o...
