Frequency manipulation of THz bound-to-continuum quantum-cascade lasers
Frequency manipulation of THz bound-to-continuum quantum-cascade lasers
The laser emission frequencies of existing designs are controlled by uniform thickness transformations. Experimental results from a total of ten wafers are presented demonstrating a predictable shift in the emission wavelength concurrent with an anticipated alteration in electrical transport. Wafers based on a design around 2.9 THz produced a frequency shift of 0.35 THz. Furthermore, a 2.5% thickness reduction in our 2-THz design saw a 0.1-THz frequency shift and changes in electrical transport predicted by simulations.

Abstract
The laser emission frequencies of existing designs are controlled by uniform thickness transformations. Experimental results from a total of ten wafers are presented demonstrating a predictable shift in the emission wavelength concurrent with an anticipated alteration in electrical transport. Wafers based on a design around 2.9 THz produced a frequency shift of 0.35 THz. Furthermore, a 2.5% thickness reduction in our 2-THz design saw a 0.1-THz frequency shift and changes in electrical transport predicted by simulations.
