High-Power, High-Efficiency Mid-Infrared Quantum Cascade Lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Carrier-leakage suppression and fast carrier extraction allow quantum cascade lasers to reach internal efficiencies close to fundamental limits (~ 90 %). Then, CW wallplug efficiencies ≥ 40 % and powers ≥ 10 W become possible.
