A room-temperature watt-level continuous-wave-output power mid-infrared fiber laser operating at $\lambda\sim 3\; \unicode{x00B5}{\rm m}$ is demonstrated using a ${{\rm Ho}^{3 +}}/{{\rm Pr}^{3 +}}$ co-doped ${{\rm AlF} _3}$ based glass fiber as a gain fiber. This fixed-wavelength laser had maximum output power of 1.13 W with a slope efficiency of 10.3% and a long-term operating stability of ${\gt}{40}\;{\min }$ without any additional packaging or active thermal management. A fiber laser with tunability from 2.842 to 2.938 µm showed a maximum output power of 110 mW.

Micro-light-emitting diodes (μLEDs) have gained significant interest as an activation source for gas sensors owing to their advantages, including room temperature operation and low power consumption. However, despite these benefits, challenges still exist such as a limited range of detectable gases and slow response. In this study, we present a blue μLED-integrated light-activated gas sensor array based on SnO nanoparticles (NPs) that exhibit excellent sensitivity, tunable selectivity, and rapid detection with micro-watt level power consumption.

Thanks to high performance above room temperature, antimonide laser diodes have shown great potential for broad application in the mid-infrared spectral region. However, the laser`s performance noticeably deteriorates due to the reduction of carrier confinement with increased emission wavelength. In this paper, a novel active region with higher carrier confinements both of electron and hole, by the usage of an indirect bandgap material of AlGaAsSb as the quantum barrier, was put up to address the poor carrier confinement of GaSb-based type-I multi-quantum-well (MQW) diode lasers emission wavelength above 2.
