dc.description.abstractThe present invention provides methods and apparatus for flexible and reproducible control of quantum cascade laser frequency scans having short (nanosecond) pulse excitations. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, a method of digital frequency control for pulsed quantum cascade lasers includes digitally synthesizing a sub-threshold current, converting the sub-threshold current to analog form, and generating laser pulses. Preferably, the sub-threshold current is synchronized to the laser pulses.en_US
