Abstract

Stimulated emission from a heterostructure with Hg0.903Cd0.097Te/Cd0.7Hg0.3Te quantum wells, placed in a waveguide layer of wide-gap CdHgTe, is obtained at wavelengths of 14–11 μm and a temperatures of 18–80 K. The threshold Auger recombination energy is calculated for a set of heterostructures with quantum wells of pure HgTe with a band gap of 90 meV (wavelength 14 μm). The possibility of fabricating lasers operating at 14 μm and working temperatures higher than that of liquid nitrogen is demonstrated.
