By introducing methyl fluoride (CH$_3$F) as a new gain medium for a quantum cascade laser-pumped molecular laser (QPML), we demonstrate continuous-wave lasing from more than 120 discrete transitions spanning the frequency range 0.25 to 1.3…
Quantum cascade laser (QCL)-pumped molecular lasers (QPMLs) have recently been introduced as a new source of powerful (>1 mW), tunable (>1 THz), narrow-band (<10 kHz), continuous-wave terahertz radiation. The performance of these lasers…

We report on the operation of a 50 mW continuous wave quantum cascade laser (QCL) in the 9.2 micrometer range, phase locked to a single mode CO2 laser with a tunable frequency offset. The wide free running emission spectrum of the QCL (3-5…
For the first time, we present the pump power-controlled wavelength-tunable mode-locked fiber laser in the L-band (1565 nm to 1625 nm), achieved by all-polarization maintaining (all-PM) nonlinear polarization rotation (NPR). The wavelength…
Terahertz quantum cascade lasers (THz QCLs) are chip-scale semiconductor lasers operating in the frequency range between 1-6 THz, useful as compact sources for spectroscopy, communications, and non-destructive imaging and testing. Here, we…

Simultaneous strong coherent pumping of the two transitions of a V-level atom with very differentdecay rates has been predicted to create almost perfect inversion on the narrower transition. Usingthe example of the blue and red transitions…
It was recently demonstrated that broadband quantum cascade lasers can operate as frequency combs. As such, they operate under direct electrical pumping at both mid-infrared and THz frequencies, making them very attractive for dual-comb…
Electrically independent terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are optically coupled in a Y configuration. Dual frequency, electronically switchable emission is achieved in one QCL using an aperiodic grating, designed using…

Remote laser in air based on amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) has produced rather well-collimated coherent beams in both backward and forward propagation directions, opening up possibilities for new remote sensing approaches. The remote…
A laser is not necessarily a sophisticated device: Pumping energy into an amplifying medium randomly filled with scatterers, a powder for instance, makes a perfect "random laser." In such a laser, the absence of mirrors greatly simplifies…
