We present a comparison between interband cascade lasers (ICLs) with a 6-stage active region emitting at 5 $\mu$m with AlSb/InAs superlattice claddings and with bulk Al_0.85 Ga_0.15 As_0.07 Sb_0.93 claddings. Utilizing bulk AlGaAsSb…

We compare InAs-based and GaSb-based interband cascade lasers (ICLs) with the same 12 stages active region designed to emit at a wavelength of 4.6 {\mu}m. They employ a hybrid cladding architecture with the same geometry and inner claddings…

We present GaSb-based interband cascade lasers emitting at a center wavelength of 6.12 $\mu$m at 20$^\circ$C in continuous-wave operation up to a maximum operating temperature of 40$^\circ$C. Pulsed measurements based on broad area devices…

Many precision applications in the mid-infrared spectral range have strong constraints based on quantum effects that are expressed in particular noise characteristics. They limit, e.g., sensitivity and resolution of mid-infrared imaging and…

We report on the operation of a double metal waveguide far-infrared quantum cascade laser emitting at 28 $\mu$m, corresponding to the AlAs-like phonon Reststrahlen band. To avoid absorption by AlAs-like optical phonons, the Al-free group-V…

High performance of InP-based quantum cascade lasers emitting at $\lambda$ ~ 9$\mu$m are reported. Thick electroplated gold layer was deposited on top of the laser to improve heat dissipation. With one facet high reflection coated, the…

In this paper, the flexibility of long-wavelength Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice (Ga-containing SL) is explored and investigated from the growth to the device performance. First, several samples with different SL period composition and…

We investigate the broadband optical emission of diffuse intergalactic stars in galaxy clusters at z~0.25 by means of an image stacking technique. The images of 654 clusters, selected with the max-BCG algorithm from a subsample of the…

In this work an analysis of the intracluster light (ICL) in the galaxy cluster SMACS J0723.3-7327 (hereafter, SMACS J0723) using JWST/NIRCam deep imaging in six filters (F090W to F444W) is presented. The images were processed for low…

We demonstrate that absorption saturation of a mid-infrared intersubband transition can be engineered to occur at moderate light intensities of the order of 10-20 kW$.$cm$^{-2}$ and at room temperature. The structure consists of an array of…

Portable mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy and sensing applications require widely tunable, narrow linewidth, chip-scale, single-mode sources without sacrificing significant output power. However, no such lasers have been demonstrated…

GeSn lasers enable monolithic integration of lasers on the Si platform using all-group-IV direct-bandgap materials. Although optically pumped GeSn lasers have made significant progress, the study of the electrically injected lasers has just…

The presence of a diffuse stellar component in galaxy clusters has been established by a number of observational works in recent years. In this contribution I summarize our results (Zibetti et al. 2005) obtained by stacking SDSS images of…
