58. | nBn extended short-wavelength infrared focal plane array ARASH DEHZANGI, ABBAS HADDADI, ROMAIN CHEVALLIER, YIYUN ZHANG, AND MANIJEH RAZEGHI Optics Letters Vol. 43, Issue 3, pp. 591-594-- February 1, 2018 ...[Visit Journal] An extended short-wavelength nBn InAs/GaSb/AlSb type-II superlattice-based infrared focal plane array imager was demonstrated. A newly developed InAs0.10Sb0.90∕GaSb superlattice design was used as the large-bandgap electron barrier in this photodetector. The large band gap electron-barrier design in this nBn photodetector architecture leads to the device having lower dark current densities. A new bi-layer etch-stop scheme using a combination of InAs0.91Sb0.09 bulk
and AlAs0.1Sb0.9∕GaSb superlattice layers was introduced to allow complete substrate removal and a shorter wavelength cut-on. Test pixels exhibit 100% cutoff wavelengths of ∼2.30 and ∼2.48 μm at 150 and 300 K, respectively. The devices achieve saturated quantum efficiency values of 59.7% and 63.8% at 150 and 300 K, respectively, under backside illumination and without any antireflection coating.At 150 K, photodetectors exhibit dark current density of 8.75 × 10−8 A∕cm² under −400 mV applied bias, providing
specific detectivity of 2.82 × 1012 cm · Hz1∕2∕W at 1.78 μm. At 300 K, the dark current density reaches 4.75 × 10−2 A∕cm² under −200 mV bias, providing a specific detectivity of 8.55 × 109 cm · Hz1∕2∕W 1.78 μm. [reprint (PDF)] |

23. | Band-structure-engineered high-gain LWIR photodetector based on a type-II superlattice Arash Dehzangi, Jiakai Li and Manijeh Razeghi Light: Science & Applications volume 10, Article number: 17 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1038/s41377-020-00453-x ...[Visit Journal] The LWIR and longer wavelength regions are of particular interest for new developments and new approaches to realizing long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) photodetectors with high detectivity and high responsivity. These photodetectors are highly desirable for applications such as infrared earth science and astronomy, remote sensing, optical communication, and thermal and medical imaging. Here, we report the design, growth, and characterization of a high-gain band-structure-engineered LWIR heterojunction phototransistor based on type-II superlattices. The 1/e cut-off wavelength of the device is 8.0 µm. At 77 K, unity optical gain occurs at a 90 mV applied bias with a dark current density of 3.2 × 10−7 A/cm2. The optical gain of the device at 77 K saturates at a value of 276 at an applied bias of 220 mV. This saturation corresponds to a responsivity of 1284 A/W and a specific detectivity of 2.34 × 1013 cm Hz1/2/W at a peak detection wavelength of ~6.8 µm.

(2025), Self-Detecting Mid-Infrared Dual-Comb Spectroscopy Based on High-Speed Injection-Locked Quantum Cascade Lasers. Adv. Photonics Res. 2500062. https://doi.org/10.1002/adpr.202500062 ...[Visit Journal] Dual-comb spectrometer based on quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) is gaining fast development and revolutionizing the precision measurement with high-frequency and temporal resolutions. In these measurements, high-bandwidth photodetectors are normally used for signal acquisition and processing, which complicates the measurement system. QCL is well-known for its picosecond gain-recovery time with an intrinsic bandwidth of tens of GHz. In this work, a compact self-detecting dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) is demonstrated based on dispersion-engineered, high-speed packaged QCLs under coherent injection locking. The laser source is designed and fabricated into a hybrid-monolithic-integrated waveguide and epi-down packaged on a wideband-designed submount to fully explore the high-speed feature up to fourth-order harmonic state with a cutoff frequency of 40 GHz. The effective radio frequency (RF) injection locking diminishes the issue of optical feedback and enables high-bandwidth self-detection based on QCLs. Clear and stable multiheterodyne signal corresponding to a spectral range of 68 cm−1 and narrow comb tooth linewidth of ≈10 kHz is observed without using external detector or numerical process. The demonstrated broadband, high-power, self-detecting mid-infrared QCL DCS has a great potential for future applications of molecular sensing and spectroscopy. [reprint (PDF)] |

Ultrafast Pulse Generation from Quantum Cascade Lasers. Micromachines 2022, 13, 2063. https://doi.org/10.3390/ mi13122063 ...[Visit Journal] Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) have broken the spectral barriers of semiconductor lasers and enabled a range of applications in the mid-infrared (MIR) and terahertz (THz) regimes. However, until recently, generating ultrashort and intense pulses from QCLs has been difficult. This would be useful to study ultrafast processes in MIR and THz using the targeted wavelength-by-design properties of QCLs. Since the first demonstration in 2009, mode-locking of QCLs has undergone considerable development in the past decade, which includes revealing the underlying mechanism of pulse formation, the development of an ultrafast THz detection technique, and the invention of novel pulse compression technology, etc. Here, we review the history and recent progress of ultrafast pulse generation from QCLs in both the THz and MIR regimes.

12. | High-brightness LWIR quantum cascade lasers F. Wang, S. Slivken, and M. Razeghi Optics Letters, vol. 46, No. 20, 5193 ...[Visit Journal] Long-wave infrared (LWIR, lambda~8-12 um) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are drawing increasing interest, as they provide the possibility of long-distance transmission of light through the atmosphere owing to the reduced water absorption. However, their development has been lagging behind the shorter wavelength QCLs due to much bigger technological challenges. In this Letter, through band structure engineering based on a highly localized diagonal laser transition strategy and out-coupler design using an electrically isolated taper structure, we demonstrate high beam quality single-mode LWIR QCLs with high-brightness (2.0 MW cm-2 sr-1 for lambda~10 um, 2.2 MW cm-2 sr-1 for lambda~9 um, 5.0 MW cm-2 sr-1 for lambda~8 um) light extraction from a single facet in continuous-wave operation at 15 oC. These results mark an important milestone in exploring the lighting capability of inter-sub-band semiconductor lasers in the LWIR spectral range. [reprint (PDF)] |

10. | Room Temperature Terahertz and Frequency Combs Based on Intersubband Quantum Cascade Laser Diodes: History and Future Manijeh Razeghi and Quanyong Lu Photonics 2025, 12, 79 ...[Visit Journal] The year 2024 marks the 30-year anniversary of the quantum cascade laser (QCL),
which is becoming the leading laser source in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) range. Since
the first demonstration, QCL has undergone tremendous development in terms of the
output power, wall plug efficiency, spectral coverage, wavelength tunability, and beam
quality. Owing to its unique intersubband transition and fast gain features, QCL possesses
strong nonlinearities that makes it an ideal platform for nonlinear photonics like terahertz
(THz) difference frequency generation and direct frequency comb generation via fourwave mixing when group velocity dispersion is engineered. The feature of broadband,
high-power, and low-phase noise of QCL combs is revolutionizing mid-IR spectroscopy
and sensing by offering a new tool measuring multi-channel molecules simultaneously
in the µs time scale. While THz QCL difference frequency generation is becoming the
only semiconductor light source covering 1–5 THz at room temperature. In this paper, we
will introduce the latest research from the Center for Quantum Devices at Northwestern
University and briefly discuss the history of QCL, recent progress, and future perspective of
QCL research, especially for QCL frequency combs, room temperature THz QCL difference
frequency generation, and major challenges facing QCL in the future.

8. | Combined resonant tunneling and rate equation modeling of terahertz quantum cascade lasers Zhichao Chen , Andong Liu, Dong Chang , Sukhdeep Dhillon , Manijeh Razeghi , Feihu Wang Journal of Applied Physics, 135, 115703 ...[Visit Journal] Terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are technologically important laser sources for the THz
range but are complex to model. An efficient extended rate equation model is developed here by incorporating the
resonant tunneling mechanism from the density matrix formalism, which permits to simulate THz QCLs with thick
carrier injection barriers within the semi-classical formalism. A self-consistent solution is obtained by iteratively
solving the Schrödinger-Poisson equation with this transport model. Carrier-light coupling is also included to
simulate the current behavior arising from stimulated emission. As a quasi-ab initio model, intermediate parameters
such as pure dephasing time and optical linewidth are dynamically calculated in the convergence process, and the
only fitting parameters are the interface roughness correlation length and height. Good agreement has been achieved
by comparing the simulation results of various designs with experiments, and other models such as density matrix
Monte Carlo and non-equilibrium Green’s function method that, unlike here, require important computational
resources. The accuracy, compatibility, and computational efficiency of our model enables many application
scenarios, such as design optimization and quantitative insights into THz QCLs. Finally, the source code of the model
is also provided in the supplementary material of this article for readers to repeat the results presented here,
investigate and optimize new designs.

SPIE 10926, Quantum Sensing and Nano Electronics and Photonics XVI, 1092611-- February 1, 2019 ...[Visit Journal] This manuscript describes some of the new advances in active mid-infrared photonic integrated circuits enabled by new quantum cascade laser technologies. This includes monolithic beam steering which was achieved via the integration of a widely tunable QCL and a tapered grating outcoupler. A record 17.9 degrees of steering with a low divergence beam (0.5 degrees) was achieved. In addition, the use of surface emitting architectures is proposed as a means to reduce the manufacturing cost of next-generation QCLs. A reflective outcoupler is demonstrated which can allow for stable surface emission from a quantum cascade laser and has potential for cost-effective wafer-scale manufacturing. This outcoupler is integrated with an amplified, electrically tunable laser architecture to demonstrate high power surface emission at a wavelength near 4.9 μm. Single mode peak power up to 6.7 W is demonstrated with >6 W available over a 90 cm−1 (215 nm) spectral range. All of this is achieved while maintaining a high quality output beam, similar to a standard edge emitter. [reprint (PDF)] |
7. | Advances in mid-infrared detection and imaging: a key issues review Manijeh Razeghi and Binh-Minh Nguyen Rep. Prog. Phys. 77 (2014) 082401-- August 4, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] It has been over 200 years since people recognized the presence of infrared radiation, and developed methods to capture this signal. However, current material systems and technologies for infrared detections have not met the increasing demand for high performance infrared detectors/cameras, with each system having intrinsic drawbacks. Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice has been recently considered as a promising candidate for the next generation of infrared detection and imaging. Type-II superlattice is a man-made crystal structure, consisting of multiple quantum wells placed next to each other in a controlled way such that adjacent quantum wells can interact. The interaction between multiple quantum wells offers an additional degree of freedom in tailoring the material's properties. Another advantage of type-II superlattice is the experimental benefit of inheriting previous research on material synthesis and device fabrication of bulk semiconductors. It is the combination of these two unique strengths of type-II superlattice—novel physics and easy manipulation—that has enabled unprecedented progress in recent years. In this review, we will describe historical development, and current status of type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice for advanced detection and imaging in the mid-infrared regime (λ = 3–5 µm).
