Исследованы выходные характеристики мощных одночастотных лазеров с распределенной обратной связью с боковой брэгговской дифракционной решеткой. Приведены рекордные значения энергетических и спектральных характеристик одночастотных РОС-лазеров.

We have demonstrated a quantum cascade laser (QCL) with a generation frequency of about 3.8 THz, grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. The multilayer heterostructure for QCLs consists of 185 repetitions of an active module containing four GaAs/Al0.15Ga0.85As quantum wells. The threshold current and threshold voltage of the fabricated QCL were 2.25 kA/cm2 and 19.7 V, respectively. The QCL was generated in the multimode regime, and the detection of terahertz radiation continued with an increase in the laser temperature up to 60 K.
