(author), Williams, B.S. (author), Kumar, S. (author), Hu, Q. (author), Reno, J.L. (author), Klein, B. (author), Hesler, J.L. (author)We demonstrate the phase locking of a 2.7 THz metal–metal waveguide quantum cascade laser (QCL) to an external microwave signal. The reference is the 15th harmonic, generated by a semiconductor superlattice nonlinear device, of a signal at 182 GHz, which itself is generated by a multiplier chain (x12) from a microwave synthesizer at ~15 GHz....journal article 2009

Khosropanah, P. (author), Zhang, W. (author), Hovenier, J.N. (author), Gao, J.R. (author), Klapwijk, T.M. (author), Amanti, M.I. (author), Scalari, G. (author), Faist, J. (author)We report a heterodyne receiver using a superconducting NbN hot electron bolometer (HEB) integrated with a tight winding spiral antenna as mixer and a distributed feedback (DFB) terahertz quantum cascade laser (QCL) operating at 3.42 THz as local oscillator. The aim is to demonstrate the readiness of both devices for the detection of OH lines at...journal article 2008
