Description

Eos Photonics proposes to develop, together with Harvard University, the next generation of widely-tunable high power quantum cascade laser (QCL) sources with high output power at a wavelength of 4.6 microns. The QCL device relies on the integration of DBR gratings and will cover the entire wavelength range from 4.18 to 5.11 microns with an output power greater than 500mW. The design parameters will be explored to maximize output power, wall plug efficiency and tuning range. Additionally, we will explore methods to manufacture the laser systems with high production yield.
