摘要
We demonstrate a quantum cascade laser with active regions consisting of InAs quantum dots deposited on GaAs buffer layers that arc embedded in InGaAs wells confined by InAlAs barriers. Continuous wave room temperature lasing at the wavelength of 7.2 mu m has been demonstrated with the threshold current density as low as 1.89 kA/cm(2), while in pulsed operational mode lasing at temperatures as high as 110 degrees C had been observed. A phenomenological theory explaining the improved performance due to weak localization of states had been formulated. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
