Abstract
Since their first demonstration in 2002, the performance of terahertz frequency quantum cascade lasers has developed extremely rapidly. We consider the potential use of terahertz frequency quantum cascade lasers as local oscillators in satellite-borne instrumentation for future Earth observation and planetary science missions. A specific focus will be on the development of compact, waveguide-integrated, heterodyne detection systems for the supra-terahertz range.
