Abstract
The road towards the realization of quantum cascade laser (QCL) frequency combs [1,2] has undoubtedly attracted ubiquitous attention from the scientific community. These devices promise to deliver an all-in-one (i.e. a single, miniature, active device) frequency comb synthesizer in a range as wide as the QCL spectral coverage itself (from about 4 microns to the THz range), with the unique possibility to tailor their spectral emission by band structure engineering. For these reasons, vigorous efforts have been spent to characterize the emission of four-wave-mixing (FWM) multi-frequency QCLs, aiming to seize their comb-like mode-locked operation [3-6].
