Abstrakt: We report on the first observation of stimulated emission from Hg-based quantum well structures in which the active region is a HgCdTe superlattice. The laser structures were grown on (100) CdZnTe substrates photoassisted molecular beam epitaxy. Cleaved laser cavities were optically pumped using the 1.06 μm output from a cw Nd:YAG laser. Stimulated emission cavity modes were seen at cw laser power densities as low as 3.4 kW/cm2 and at temperatures ≥ 60 K. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
