- For the first time a hybrid electron-photon transport model capable of capturing both the optical power rollover and high-speed dynamics of THz quantum-cascade lasers grown and fabricated, in excellent agreement with measurement, was presented. The model developed in conjunction with our work in Opt. Express 24, 20554–20570 (2016) are stepping-stones in the process of designing high speed THz imaging platforms based on quantum-cascade lasers operating in pulsed mode under optical feedback. Further led to international collaborations with the University of Queensland funded by joint ARC Discovery - DP120103703, EU BM1205 COST projects on THz bio-medical imaging and tissue characterisation.
