SPIE Quantum and Interband Cascade Lasers ISBN: 9780819487858

Description
An SPIE Special Collection Over 16 years have passed since the Bell Labs group headed by Federico Capasso first demonstrated the quantum cascade laser (QCL). The intervening interval has seen the QCL evolve from a barely functional scientific curiosity into a powerful technology poised to offer new capabilities to a broad spectrum of real-world applications. In assembling this special section of Optical Engineering, our dual goals have been to provide a snapshot of the cascade laser field in its adolescence, and to familiarize a wider audience of optical engineers with the far-reaching practical potential of these unique IR sources. This collection of papers was originally published in Vol. 49, No. 11 (2010) of Optical Engineering.
