A compact, continuous-wave terahertz source based on a quantum-cascade laser and a miniature cryocooler.
We report on the development of a compact, easy-to-use terahertz radiation source, which combines a quantum-cascade laser (QCL) operating at 3.1 THz with a compact, low-input-power Stirling cooler. The QCL, which is based on a two-miniband design, has been developed for high output and low electrical pump power. The amount of generated heat complies with the nominal cooling capacity of the Stir...
متن کاملWidely tunable quantum cascade laser-based terahertz source.
A compact, tunable, ultranarrowband terahertz source, Δν∼1 MHz, is demonstrated by upconversion of a 2.324 THz, free-running quantum cascade laser with a THz Schottky-diode-balanced mixer using a swept, synthesized microwave source to drive the nonlinearity. Continuously tunable radiation of 1 μW power is demonstrated in two frequency regions: ν(Laser) ± 0 to 50 GHz and ν(Laser) ± 70 to 115 GH...
متن کاملSimple Terahertz Continuous-wave Applications based on a Compact Dual Mode Laser
We demonstrated simple terahertz applications using a coherent homodyne continuous-wave (CW) terahertz (THz) system. The system was developed based on a compact semiconductor dual-mode laser diode (DML). The DML was used for an optical beat source to generate a THz CW. The two lasing modes from the DML are well correlated and generate a high-purity THz CW signal. The system was applied to measu...
متن کاملTerahertz quantum-cascade laser with active leaky-wave antenna
We report the demonstration of a one-dimensional waveguide for terahertz quantum-cascade (QC) lasers, which acts as a leaky-wave antenna and tailors laser radiation in one dimension to a directional beam. This scheme adapts microwave transmission-line metamaterial concepts to a planar structure realized in terahertz metal-metal waveguide technology. The active leaky-wave antenna is fed by a mas...
متن کاملtask-based language teaching in iran: a mixed study through constructing and validating a new questionnaire based on theoretical, sociocultural, and educational frameworks
جنبه های گوناگونی از زندگی در ایران را از جمله سبک زندگی، علم و امکانات فنی و تکنولوژیکی می توان کم یا بیش وارداتی در نظر گرفت. زبان انگلیسی و روش تدریس آن نیز از این قاعده مثتسنی نیست. با این حال گاهی سوال پیش می آید که آیا یک روش خاص با زیر ساخت های نظری، فرهنگی اجتماعی و آموزشی جامعه ایرانی سازگاری دارد یا خیر. این تحقیق بر اساس روش های ترکیبی انجام شده است.پرسش نامه ای نیز برای زبان آموزان ...
