摘要
Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) emitting at wavelengths as short as 2.63-2.65 mu m are demonstrated. The InAs/AlSb QCL design was optimized to weaken carrier leakage into the L-valley by reducing coupling between the active InAs quantum wells. The lasers with HR-coated facets operated up to 175 K.
