Journal ArticleDOI
Continuous wave operation of a mid-infrared semiconductor laser at room temperature.
Mattias Beck,Daniel Hofstetter,Thierry Aellen,Jérôme Faist,Ursula Oesterle,Marc Ilegems,Emilio Gini,H. Melchior +7 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the potential of quantum cascade lasers as continuous wave mid-infrared light sources for high-resolution spectroscopy, chemical sensing applications, and free-space optical communication systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
ZnO Devices and Applications: A Review of Current Status and Future Prospects
TL;DR: There are still a number of important issues that need to be resolved before ZnO can be transitioned to commercial use, not to mention the stiff competition it is facing with GaN, which is much more mature in terms of devices.
Patent
Blue vertical cavity surface emitting laser
TL;DR: An independently addressable, vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) emitting light in the blue wavelength range of 390 to 430 nanometers comprises a gallium nitride-based laser structure grown by selective area epitaxy and lateral mask overgrowth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bound-to-continuum and two-phonon resonance, quantum-cascade lasers for high duty cycle, high-temperature operation
TL;DR: In this article, a two-phonon resonance or a bound-to-continuum transition was proposed to achieve state-of-the-art performance in quantum-cascade (QC) laser active regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz range quantum well infrared photodetector
Marcel Graf,Giacomo Scalari,Daniel Hofstetter,Jérôme Faist,Harvey E. Beere,Edmund H. Linfield,David A. Ritchie,Giles Davies +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a GaAs/AlGaAs-based far-infrared quantum well infrared photodetector at a wavelength of λ=84 μm was demonstrated for zero bias operation, which profits from a relatively low dark current and a good noise behavior.
