| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we fabricated two-mode laser using semiconductor InAs quantum dots as the gain medium in the external cavity configuration. When the QDs were used for gain media, the mode hopping could be suppressed and stable two-mode lasing was obtained. Two-mode laser emission with a separation of 0.09, 0.1, 0.3, and 1 THz has been achieved by controlling the etalon and narrow-band filter setting and corresponding beat signal was observed in interference measurement. From these results, the fabricated two-mode laser can be used for generation of terahertz wave.
