The free-spectral range (FSR) of quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) emitting at 4.7 µm can be tuned through direct microwave modulation. The intrinsic short carrier lifetime of inter-subband transitions, along with impedance matched electrical packaging, allows a high-speed modulation up to more than 30 ...
