Current tuned slotted Y‐branch laser for wafer thickness measurements with THz radiation

Abstract A slotted Y‐branch laser diode that emits two spectral modes at a difference frequency of about 1 THz is investigated in the context of photonic based cw‐THz measurements. The beating frequency of the emitted laser light can be tuned by ±10.5 GHz around 1 THz by changing the applied laser c...
