Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a device structure and a manufacturing method of a single-mode quantum cascade laser. Background technique [0002] Because the 3-14μm mid-to-far infrared band is a very important atmospheric window, it has extremely important application prospects in national defense, medicine, environmental protection, gas detection, chemical spectroscopy, free space communication, etc., and the lasing wavelength of conventional semiconductor lasers is limited. Limited to the forbidden band width of semiconductor materials, there are few narrow band gap materials in nature, and it is very difficult to obtain semiconductor lasers with mid-to-far infrared wavelengths. In order to meet the application needs of solid-state light sources in the mid- and far-infrared bands, scientists jumped out of the classical theory of the lasing mechanism of traditional p-n junction semiconductor lasers, a...
