Abstract

We present a semiconductor injection laser operating in continuous wave with emission covering more than one octave in frequency and displaying homogeneous power distribution among the lasing modes. The gain medium is based on a heterogeneous quantum cascade structure operating in the terahertz range. Laser emission in continuous wave takes place from 1.64 THz to 3.35 THz with optical powers in the milliwatt range and more than 80 modes above threshold. For narrow waveguides, a collapse of the free-running beatnote to linewidths of 980 Hz, limited by jitter, indicate frequency comb operation on a spectral bandwidth as wide as 624 GHz, making such devices ideal candidates for octave-spanning semiconductor-laser-based terahertz frequency combs. The authors report a semiconductor injection laser with a continuous wave emission spanning more than one octave, from 1.64 THz to 3.35 THz, with optical powers in the milliwatt range and more than 80 modes above threshold.

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.
