Field-enhancing tapered planarized waveguides for THz quantum cascade laser frequency combs

We present a new planarized waveguide geometry for THz quantum cascade laser frequency combs with improved waveguide losses, RF and thermal dissipation properties. Ridge devices display broadband free-running comb states, and the THz emission can be further broadened by RF injection. Tapered wavegui...

description We present a new planarized waveguide geometry for THz quantum cascade laser frequency combs with improved waveguide losses, RF and thermal dissipation properties. Ridge devices display broadband free-running comb states, and the THz emission can be further broadened by RF injection. Tapered waveguide devices feature a strong field-enhancement effect, which results in an improved comb performance. This includes free-running comb states with strong single beatnotes up to nearly -30 dBm at 90 K, almost three orders of magnitude stronger than for ridge devices. Improved comb operation is maintained also for high operating temperatures, up to 115 K.
