Phonon Avoided and Scalable Cascade Lasers (PASCAL)
Abstract
In the DARPA-EMIL program, we investigated and developed a novel process of forming such QD applying lateral electric field. This method doesn't change the structure permanently as in chemical processes and it is much more uniform compared to other methods. We implemented QDs on a cascade laser structure and formed phonon avoided scalable quantum cascade laser (PASCAL). We have implemented self-assembled nanosphere lithography techniques to form a uniform array of quantum dot patterns. This novel technique has been published in several peer reviewed journals and became the cover story of Nanotechnology, December 2007 issue.
