Description
Tunable Monolux QCL system by Pranalytica.
Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) represent a fundamentally new class of semiconductor lasers that are capable of generating light in the mid wave to longwave infrared portions of the spectrum, generally between 4 and 12 microns. MonoLux is a wavelength tunable external grating cavity quantum cascade laser system consisting of one QCL.

Features
The QCL is operated in a quasi-CW mode with 200-500 ns pulses with a duty cycle of ~50 %. In this mode of operation, the average power output from a QCL exceeds 500 mW at the center of its tuning curve depending on the choice of center wavelength. MonoLux can also be operated in CW mode by choosing 100% duty cycle (option). The system is passively cooled with no fans, which makes for very quiet operation.
Applications
- Spectroscopy
- Free space optical communications
- Directed infrared countermeasures and other security areas
