Terahertz sources based on difference-frequency generation near exit facets in dual-wavelength mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report novel quantum cascade laser sources based on difference-frequency generation in nonlinear sections localized near exit facets. This new approach allows for infrared-to-terahertz conversion efficiencies above 1mW/W2. Experimentally, devices operating at 4THz are discussed.
