Tunable terahertz quantum cascade lasers with external gratings

We demonstrate a frequency tunable external cavity terahertz quantum cascade laser using an abutted antireflection-coated silicon lens to reduce facet reflection and as a beam-forming element, with an external grating providing frequency selective optical feedback. Angle tuning of the grating allows...
