Tunable external cavity laser diode based on wavelength controlled self-assembled InAs quantum dots for swept-source optical coherence tomography applications at 1100 nm wavelength band

Efficient terahertz (THz)-wave generation via difference frequency generation (DFG) in a GaAs-based two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguide (PhC-WG) was proposed and investigated through numerical simulations. A PhC-WG with a low-group-velocity and low-dispersion mode (LVLD PhC-WG) was designed, and THz–DFG spanning sub- to several THz in frequency was obtained. Electric field enhancement and phase-matching between two fundamental light pulses in the LVLD PhC-WG generated THz–DFG approximately 280 times that in a GaAs strip waveguide. This method is applicable to highly efficient and tunable small-footprint THz-emitting devices based on semiconductor materials.
