Popis: Short-wavelength (lambda < 4 µm) GaInAs-AlAsSb quantum cascade (QC) lasers have been demonstrated using a "bound-to-continuum" design for the purpose of reducing the electric injection power density. As a result, we have reduced the low-temperature electric injection power density of the lasers by 40%, compared to that of GaInAs-AlAsSb QC lasers emitting at the same wavelength but adopting a triple-quantum-well design. The lasers in the present report can operate up to room temperature (300 K) in pulsed mode, emitting at short-wavelength lambda about 3.7 - 3.9 µm.
