Abstract
We present 3.36 µm buried heterostructure distributed-feedback quantum cascade lasers with a power dissipation at threshold below 250 mW and operation temperatures as high as 130 °C. Threshold values below 20 mA at -10 °C in pulsed operation and 30 mA at -20 °C in continuous-wave operation are reported. Optical power above 130 mW and 13 mW are achieved at -20 °C in pulsed and continuous-wave operation, respectively. Continuous-wave operation occurs until 15 °C. We show single-mode emission in pulsed and continuous-wave operation. Single-mode performance is demonstrated in long pulse (5.56 µs) operation. The laser far-field exhibits a single lobe emission with full-width-half-max of 27 ° × 34 °.
