    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a quantum cascade laser beam source (1) includes: preparing a semiconductor stacked body (20); forming a pair of first excavated portions (41 and 42) and a ridge portion which is interposed between the pair of first excavated portions (41 and 42); forming channel structures (51 and 52) and circumferential edge portions (61 and 62) which are formed to interpose the channel structures (51 and 52) between the ridge portion (30) and the circumferential edge portion; forming an electrode pattern (81) in contact with a first area (29a) and forming an electrode pattern (82) in contact with a second area (22a); fixing a crystal growth surface side to a support substrate (91); removing an Fe-doped (semi-insulating) InP single-crystal substrate (21); fixing a Si substrate (93); and peeling the support substrate (91).

    Abstract: A quantum cascade detector includes a semiconductor substrate, and an active layer formed by laminating unit laminate structures each having an absorption region with a first barrier layer to a second well layer and a transport region with a third barrier layer to an n-th well layer. A second absorption well layer has a layer thickness ½ or less of that of a first absorption well layer thickest in one period, and a coupling barrier layer has a layer thickness smaller than that of an exit barrier layer thickest in one period. The unit laminate structure has a detection lower level arising from a ground level in the first well layer, a detection upper level generated by coupling an excitation level in the first well layer and a ground level in the second well layer, and a transport level structure for electrons.

    Abstract: A quantum cascade laser device has a light-absorbing cover member located between one emission end face of a quantum cascade laser element and an emission window of a housing. The emission end face and an opposing surface of a submount with respect to the cover member are flush with each other. The cover member has an opening at a position opposing the emission end face. The opening has a tapered first opening part increasing its diameter from the emission end face side to the emission window side and a second opening part formed with a fixed diameter not smaller than the smallest diameter of the first opening part.

    Abstract: A quantum cascade laser includes a semiconductor substrate, and an active layer that is provided on the substrate, and has a cascade structure in which emission layers and injection layers are alternately laminated by multistage-laminating unit laminate structures each consisting of the quantum well emission layer and the injection layer, the active layer generates light by intersubband transition in a quantum well structure. Further, in a laser cavity structure for light with a predetermined wavelength to be generated in the active layer, reflection control films including at least one layer of CeO2 film are formed on a first end face and a second end face facing each other. Thereby, it is possible to realize a quantum cascade laser capable of preferably realizing reflectance control for light within a mid-infrared wavelength region on the laser device end face.
