Popis: | The development of (λ ∼ 9. 4 μ m) GaAs-based quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) operating at the room temperature is reported. The laser design followed an “anticrossed-diagonal” scheme of Page et al. [1]. The QCL GaAs∕Al0.45Ga0.55As heterostructures were grown by solid source (SS) MBE. The double trench lasers were fabricated using wet etching and Si3N4 for electrical insulation. Double plasmon confinement with Al-free waveguide has been used to minimize absorption losses. Optical and electrical properties of resulting devices are presented and discussed. |
