Frequency stability of a dual wavelength quantum cascade laser

Abstract: Abstract:We characterized the dual wavelength operation of a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) quantum cascade laser (QCL) operating at 4.5 μm using two independent optical frequency discriminators. The QCL emits up to 150 mW fairly evenly distributed between two adjacent Fabry-Perot modes separated by ≈11.6 GHz. We show a strong correlation between the instantaneous optical frequencies of the two lasing modes, characterized by a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.96. As a result, we stabilized one laser mod… Show more

“…The measured device shows a twice higher output power than the most powerful narrow-linewidth dual-mode QCL reported so far to our knowledge [32] (see Figure 5 and Table 1). Figure 5 shows the output power of the devices reported in the literature in Table 1 as a function of the ratio between the FWHM and the emitted frequency of the device enabling a direct comparison of the linewidth across different emission wavelength ranges.…”

“…Как следствие, в спектре генерации возникают дополнительные моды, что снижает процент выхода годных приборов [10]. Использование распределенных брэгговских отражателей (РБО) [11][12][13][14] исключает эффект пространственного выжигания дыр ( " spatial hole burning"), наблюдаемый в длинных РОС-лазерах. Ранее одночастотный режим генерации в ККЛ с РБО был реализован в спектральном диапазоне 4.5−5.0 µm [11,13].…”

“…This mid-infrared filter with an ultra-narrow bandwidth presented here potentially offers a novel and effective filtering method for QCL-based applications. [9][10][11][12] Gas-phase NO is selected as the working material of the MIFOF because NO is the typical representative of paramagnetic molecules. Its fundamental vibrational band located in the 5.3 μm wavelength region has the strongest line-intensity and is therefore promising for good filter performance.…”
