The results of experiments on the fabrication (by molecular-beam epitaxy) and investigation of the heterostructures of a two-frequency quantum-cascade laser produced on the basis of a heteropair of In_0.53Ga_0.47As/Al_0.48In_0.52As solid solutions on an InP substrate are presented. The heterostructures contained quantum cascades emitting at a wavelength of 9.6 μm and cascades emitting at a wavelength of 7.6 μm. The high structural quality of the fabricated heterostructures is shown. The spontaneous emission and lasing spectra are investigated and the multimodal laser generation of stripe lasers at a wavelength of 7.6 μm is demonstrated.
