摘要：
We propose an original design for a HgCdTe-based terahertz vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser with twenty 5 nm HgTe quantum wells. Feasibility of laser generation at 9 THz and a lattice temperature of 8 K is shown. The estimate of the threshold pump intensity using laser radiation at a wavelength of 5 mu m is 3 W/cm2, which makes it possible to expect continuous wave (CW) mode lasing. Such a low required pump intensity will make it possible to create a very compact system of a laser pumped by CW mid-infrared quantum cascade laser.
