研究目的
To increase output power while keeping good beam quality in mid-infrared AlInAs/InGaAs/InP QCLs by using taper design of resonator.
研究成果
The convex geometry taper laser with 1.7o taper angle demonstrated the best performance, achieving the highest output power and smallest horizontal beam divergence. Non-linear taper designs showed better performance in terms of M2 and brightness parameters.
研究不足
The study focused on devices emitting at 4.5 μm with specific taper angles and shapes. The performance of devices with larger taper angles showed slight deterioration.
