Abstract
Continuous wave operation of a quantum cascade laser at λ=4.6 μm is reported above liquid nitrogen temperature. Optical powers of 15 mW at 50 K and 2 mW at 85 K are reported. The single mode spectrum is temperature tunable over 1.8 cm −1. A linewidth of 115 Mhz is measured with a Fabry–Perot on those free running devices. Gain measurements show evidence for ultra low linewidth enhancement factor α<0.1. These devices also operated in pulse mode with 20 mW peak power at 200 K.
