    摘要: The core of the disclosed novel quantum cascade (QC) laser comprises a multiplicity of nominally identical repeat units, with a given repeat unit comprising a superlattice active region and a carrier injector region. Associated with the superlattice active region is an upper and a lower energy miniband, with the lasing transition being the transition from the lower edge of the upper miniband to the upper edge of the lower miniband. The injector facilitates carrier transport from the lower miniband to the upper miniband of the adjacent downstream repeat unit. QC lasers according to this invention can be designed to emit in the infrared, e.g., in the wavelength region 3-15 .mu.m, and can have high power.

    摘要: A system measures the strain of an object. The system includes a laser source for generating an output radiation, a strainable optical fiber having first and second facets, and means for calculating a measure of a strain of the optical fiber. The first facet is coupled to the laser source to receive the output radiation and transmit a guided radiation over the optical fiber towards the second facet. The second facet is adapted to receive the guided radiation and to reflect a corresponding reflected radiation towards the first facet. The laser source is a self-mixing type adapted to receive at least part of the reflected radiation and to mix the output radiation with the received radiation. The calculating means calculate the measure of the strain of the optical fiber based on a self-mixing effect in the laser source that is caused by the linear displacement of the second section.

The system includes a laser source for generating an output radiation, a strainable optical fiber having first and second facets, and means for calculating a measure of a strain of the optical fiber. The first facet is coupled to the laser source for receiving the output radiation and for transmitting therefrom a guided radiation over the optical fiber towards the second facet. The second facet is adapted to receive the guided radiation and to reflect a corresponding reflected radiation towards the first facet. The laser source is a self-mixing type adapted to receive at least part of the reflected radiation and to mix the output radiation with the received radiation. The calculating means calculate the measure of the strain of the optical fiber through the linear displacement of the second section measured by the self-mixing effect in the laser source.
