摘要

We developed a near-infrared (NIR) superluminescent diode (SLD) based on self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) and demonstrated high-axial-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging using this QD-based SLD (QD-SLD). The QD-SLD utilized InAs QDs with controlled emission wavelengths as a NIR broadband light emitter, and a tilted waveguide with segmented electrodes was prepared for edge-emitting broadband electroluminescence (EL) spanning approximately 1-1.3 mu m. The bandwidth of the EL spectrum was increased up to 144 nm at a temperature of 25 degrees C controlled using a thermoelectric cooler. The inverse Fourier transform of the EL spectrum predicted a minimum resolution of 3.6 mu m in air. The QD-SLD was subsequently introduced into a spectral-domain (SD)-OCT setup, and SD-OCT imaging was performed for industrial and biological test samples. The OCT images obtained using the QD-SLD showed an axial resolution of similar to 4 mu m, which was almost the same as that predicted from the spectrum. This axial resolution is less than the typical size of a single biological cell (similar to 5 mu m), and the practical demonstration of high-axial-resolution OCT imaging shows the application of QD-SLDs as a compact OCT light source, which enables the development of a portable OCT system.
