  • QCL spectroscopy system and applications therefor
    Patent number: 10830697
    Abstract: A spectroscopy system comprising at least two laser modules, each of the laser modules including a laser cavity, a quantum cascade gain chip for amplifying light within the laser cavity, and a tuning element for controlling a wavelength of light generated by the modules. Combining optics are used to combine the light generated by the at least two laser modules into a single beam and a sample detector detects the single beam returning from a sample.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2018
    Date of Patent: November 10, 2020
    Assignee: Block Engineering, LLC
    Inventors: Petros Kotidis, Erik Deutsch, Ninghui Zhu, Dan Cavicchio
