Outline of Research at the Start |
A new design of active region by using indirect injection scheme is proposed to lift up the operating temperature of low-frequency THz-QCLs in real applications.
|
Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1.Full theory quantum transport based on non-equilibrium Green’s function is packaged as a simulation platform, to predict the quantum transport in terahertz quantum cascade laser. 2.Improved technique in GaAs/Al0.2Ga0.8As quantum well with 1200 stacked layers is shown .By employing an latest Cu-Cu metals waveguide processing, the lasing of 1.8THz at 185K is achieved.
