Abstract:Low beam divergence (2.1°*4°) substrate emission from a quantum cascade laser is demonstrated with top metal grating at room temperature. An index coupled, distributed feedback laser with a SMSR of 30dB is coupled to a monolithic extraction area.Surface emission, quantum cascade laser, top metal grating, low divergence.In the last decade, strong efforts have been devoted to the development of quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) emitting in the medium infra-red region (MIR), motivated in particular by the need to imp… Show more
