nanoplus now offers mid-infrared LEDs (MIR LEDs or ICLED) at any wavelength between 2000 nm and 2500 nm. These rely on the same technology as our very successful interband cascade lasers.
The advantage over previous interband cascade LEDs can be attributed to stage grouping at one single antinode of the optical field and the usage of low absorbing substrates.
For more insights into our technology please refer to our paper "High efficiency mid-infrared interband cascade LEDs grown on low absorbing substrates emitting >5 mW of output power".
