Terahertz (THz) quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) based on double metal waveguides are compact sources of broadband THz radiation, which can also operate as frequency combs. We present a planarized double metal waveguide THz QCL platform, where the active region is embedded in a low-loss BCB polymer and covered by an extended top metallization. The latter enables placing bonding wires on the sides above the BCB-covered area, hindering the formation of any defects on the active region and enables the fabrication of waveguides with narrow widths below the bonding wire size. This can then be employed as a fundamental mode selection mechanism for comb operation without any side absorbers, and also features improved heat dissipation properties in continuous wave operation. The extended top metallization also enhances the RF properties of the device, as it encompasses a metallic cavity with the global ground plane. Experimentally, we present results on two different device geometries. First is a simple ridge waveguide with a width of 40 μm, narrow enough to act as a mode selection filter. Free-running frequency comb states with bandwidths above 600 GHz and single beatnotes up to -60 dBm are measured. With a strong external RF signal, close to the natural repetition frequency, we can broaden the emission to over 1.4 THz. The second type of device is a tapered waveguide, where the narrow sections act as a transversal mode filter, while the wider ones have lower waveguide losses and provide more gain. Due to a field-enhancement effect in the narrow sections, there is a significant enhancement in the four wave mixing, a third order nonlinear process responsible for comb formation. Free-running devices produce beatnotes close to -30 dBm, three orders of magnitude higher than for ridge devices. Improved comb performance is maintained also for high operating temperatures. A comb bandwidth above 200 GHz and a single beatnote above -60 dBm are measured at 115 K, very close to the maximum lasing temperature of 118 K. Beyond the improved laser and comb performance, the planarized waveguide platform also enables a relatively straightforward co-integration of active and passive elements.

An ultrastrongly coupled single THz meta-atom

Read Abstract +

Ultrastrong light-matter coupling has recently been achieved in several experimental platforms at different optical frequencies, leveraging on the collective enhancement of the interaction with the number of excitations and the simultaneous sub-wavelength electromagnetic field localization obtainable employing metallic resonators. Ever shrinking resonators have allowed to approach the regime of few electrons strong coupling, in which single-dipole properties can be modified by the vacuum field. In this work we will discuss two results that are relevant with respect to the limits of achievable light-matter coupling strength and to the measurement of such coupling in single, strongly subwavelength resonators. In the first experiment we demonstrate, theoretically and experimentally, the existence of a limit to the possibility of arbitrarily increasing electromagnetic confinement in polaritonic systems. Strongly sub-wavelength fields can excite a continuum of high-momenta propagative magnetoplasmons. This leads to peculiar nonlocal polaritonic effects, as certain polaritonic features disappear and the system enters in the regime of discrete-to-continuum strong coupling. In the second part of the work, we show that by combining an asymmetric immersion lens setup and complementary design of metasurfaces we are able to perform THz time domain spectroscopy of an individual, strongly subwavelength meta-atom. We unravel the linewidth dependence of planar metamaterials as a function of the meta-atom number indicating quenching of the Dicke superradiance. We investigate as well ultrastrongly coupled Landau polaritons at the single resonator level, measuring a normalized coupling ratio of 0.6 resulting from coupling of the fundamental mode of a single, deeply subwavelength LC resonatorto a few thousand electrons. Our findings pave the way towards the control of light-matter interaction in the ultrastrong coupling regime at the single electron/single resonator level. The proposed technique is way more general and can be useful to characterize the complex conductivity of micron-sized samples in the THz and sub-THz domain.
