Research abstract
QuantTera is developing a new class of silicon based-quantum-well near-infrared lasers using group IV semiconductor materials for photonic integrated systems. The uniqueness of this project lies in the development of a strained quantum well active region, which can be tuned to various laser emission wavelengths in the near-IR. Further more this laser will be integratable to existing electronic devices, which will allow the development of highly functional photonic integrated circuits for military and fiber optic applications.
