Engineering the intersubband lifetime with interface roughness in Quantum Cascade lasers

Due to interface roughness scattering, the lower laser state depopulation lifetime of Quantum Cascade lasers can be significantly reduced (e.g. from 0.25 to 0.09 picosecond theoretically) by placing additional interfaces strategically in the active region.
