Abstract
We demonstrate quantum cascade lasers at an emitting wavelength of 4.6μm, which are capable of room temperature, high power continuous wave (cw) operation. Buried ridge geometry with a width of 9.8μm was utilized. A device with a 3mm cavity length that was epilayer-down bonded on a diamond submount exhibited a maximum output power of 1.3W at room temperature in cw operation. The maximum output power at 80K was measured to be 4W, with a wall plug efficiency of 27%.
