Description
Pendar Technologies proposes to develop the next generation of compact, high power mid-wave infrared quantum cascade laser (QCL) sources with brightness exceeding the current state-of-the-art by a factor of at least 5. The novel QCL source proposed will benefit from recent advances made by Pendar in bandstructure engineering, laser cavity design and thermal management at the chip and the package level. Methods to manufacture the laser chips with high production yield at low-cost will also be explored.
