Abstract

We present the time-resolved spectral analysis of the settling process in a pulsed external-cavity quantum-cascade laser (EC-QC laser) emitting in the wavelength range around 7.4 μm. Due to mode competition between the two cavities formed by the laser-chip on one hand and the external-cavity on the other hand, a time-dependent spectral emission on a ns time-scale can be observed. Depending on the spectral characteristic of the external cavity with respect to the chip gain curve time-delays of the external cavity emission of 15–35 ns within the 100 ns drive pulse can be observed.
