Research abstract
TeraDiode is developing a low Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP) multi-band MWIR/LWIR laser module for NAVSEA under SBIR funding. TeraDiode is employing high power Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) bars in this laser module and WBC to combine the multiple wavelengths. The laser module is very compact and has three wavelength bands in the MWIR and LWIR as well as high power per band (>10 W per band average power, 20 W per band peak power).
