Yixuan Shen, Rui Q. Yang, Samuel D. Hawkins, Aaron J. Muhowski We report the demonstration of continuous-wave interband cascade lasers (ICLs) near 13 μm. The attained lasing wavelength of 13.2 μm at 92 K stands as the longest cw emission wavelength ever… Continue Reading
Jingli Gong, Zhanyi Wang, Jian-Jun He, Lu Li, Rui Q. Yang, and James A. Gupta By enhancing the coupling coefficient and using a type-I ICL wafer, single-mode ICLs were demonstrated based on V-coupled cavity with significantly extended tuning range and… Continue Reading
Yixuan Shen, Jeremy A. Massengale, Rui Q. Yang, Tetsuya D. Mishima, Michael B. Santos By focusing on a hybrid cladding approach, we demonstrate substantially improved device performance of ICLs compared to earlier reported ICLs of a similar design in the… Continue Reading
Jeremy A. Massengale, Yixuan Shen, Rui Q. Yang, Samuel D. Hawkins, Aaron J. Muhowski We report on the substantial advancement of long wavelength InAs-based interband cascade lasers (ICLs) utilizing advanced waveguides formed from hybrid cladding layers and targeting the 10-12… Continue Reading
Jeremy A. Massengale, Yixuan Shen, Rui Q. Yang, Tetsuya D. Mishima, Michael B. Santos Two ICLs (Y086L and Y087L) follow the design of Y082L series with hybrid cladding layers are reported. They have room temperature Jth as low as 148… Continue Reading
Yixuan Shen, J. A. Massengale, Rui Q. Yang, S. D. Hawkins, A. J. Muhowski. With innovative Quantum Well active regions, these ICLs were able to operate at wavelengths near 14.4 um, the longest ever demonstrated for III–V interband cascade lasers, implying great potential of… Continue Reading
