Quantum Cascade Structures

Quantum Cascade Structures is a semiconductor heterostructure-based quantum well system that enables unipolar electron transport through a series of precisely engineered, cascaded energy levels, allowing for the emission of multiple photons per electron via sequential tunneling and radiative intersubband transitions.
