THz and sub‐THz quantum cascade lasers
Abstract
In this paper we review recent progress in obtaining laser action from semiconductor quantum cascade structures covering the low THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum, from 2 THz (λ ≃ 155 μm) down to the sub‐THz region (λ > 300 μm). Particularly, laser active region designs based on bound‐to‐continuum transition and magnetically assisted intra‐well transition are presented. The wide scalability of active region designs is discussed and illustrated with experimental data. Latest results including the demonstration of laser action from quantum heterostructure at 950 GHz are presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
