Research abstract
The development of monolithic dual-band Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) delivering continuous wave (CW) optical power exceeding 3W at ~4.6µm and ~4.0µm from a single emitter in a nearly Gaussian output beam (M2 < 1.5) with wallplug efficiency exceeding 15%. The entire QCL package will have a volume size of less than 1 cm3 and will weigh less than 100g.
