Terahertz Quantum-Staircase and Quantum-Parallel Laser Designs for GaAs/AlGaAs and SiGe/Si

摘要

This briefing addresses the following quantum laser design topics: Quantum Staircase Laser - *Highly simplified cascade, *No injector sections, *Identical quantum wells, *Strain-balanced SiGe/Si, *PIP and NIN laser designs; Quantum Parallel Laser - *Simple flatband superlattice, *Low bias voltage, *'Super Superlattice' is the optimum design, *PIPIP and NININ designs.
