摘要：

The In0.53Ga0.47As-AlAs0.56Sb0.44 materials system, lattice matched to InP, is an attractive candidate for short wavelength quantum cascade lasers due to the very large conduction band discontinuity (similar to1.6 eV) and compatibility with well established quantum cascade laser waveguide design and fabrication technology. In this letter we report the operation of In0.53Ga0.47As-AlAs0.56Sb0.44 quantum cascade structures emitting in the wavelength range lambdasimilar to4-5.3 mum. Clear intersubband electroluminescence peaks are observed close to the design wavelengths, with full widths at half maximum in the range of similar to30-40 meV.
