Abstract
By exploiting the broad gain curve of quantum cascade laser active regions and by a suitable dispersion engineering, optical frequency combs that combine high power (up to a watt) and broad coverage (>100cm-1) can be achieved. We also demonstrate that these devices can be used as their own detectors, simplifying radically a potential sensing system.
