PbSnTe-PbTe heterojunction laser emitting at lambda=10 $mu$

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Quant. Electron. (Engl. Transl.), v. 5, no. 9, pp. 1137-1139
OSTI ID:4128372

An n-PbTe-p-Pb$sub 1$/sub -//subx/Sn/subx/Te heterojunction laser was fabricated by epitaxial growth of PbTe from the vapor phase on a Pb$sub 0$$.$$sub 83$Sn$sub 0$$.$$sub 17$Te substrate. Stimulated emission of the TE modes was obtained at wavelengths of 10.2 $mu$ at 77degreeK and 12.2 $mu$ at 33degreeK. Continuous stimulated emission was obtained at liquid helium temperatures. (AIP)
