Infrared laser manufacturer Intraband was spun out in 2007 and is aiming to deliver products for purposes including medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring.
Intraband, a US-based infrared laser manufacturer spun out of University of Wisconsin-Madison, secured an additional licence on Monday from the university’s tech transfer unit, Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (Warf).
The patents relate to an approach for emitting optical power at mid-range infrared wavelengths from a single chip built with metalorganic chemical vapour deposition, a semiconductor production technique that offers high throughput.
Intraband plans to use the technology in quantum cascade laser (QCL) components for purposes such as missile-avoidance systems, medical…
