Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of laser coherent synthesis, specifically relates to the field of mid-infrared quantum cascade laser coherent synthesis, and further relates to an infrared laser coherent synthesis device, in particular to a mid-infrared quantum cascade laser coherence based on polarization splitting mutual injection phase-locking synthesis device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, mid-infrared lasers have played an increasingly important role in the fields of environmental monitoring, space communication, trace gas measurement, and photoelectric countermeasures. Especially in the field of infrared countermeasures, airborne infrared light sources are needed to blind or interfere with photodetectors. Therefore, mid-infrared lasers with high power, good beam quality, compact structure and high reliability are very important light sources. With the development and progress of semiconductor laser technology, the em...
