TL;DR Summary
For a personal project, I am looking for computer software, free or for a small fee, that models a QCL laser, if possible.
Hi

For a personal project, I am looking for software that models a QCL laser. It can be free or for a small fee.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

There are some openly available tools (called MonacoQC, Matlab-based) for simulating quantum cascade structures on the Github of the computational photonics group of TU Munich:

https://github.com/orgs/cph-tum/repositories

I have no idea how versatile or easy to use they are, but maybe this is a reasonable starting point. I am quite sure there are also some papers by that group that describe the model in more detail, but I do not have a link available.
 
I read Hanbury Brown and Twiss's experiment is using one beam but split into two to test their correlation. It said the traditional correlation test were using two beams........ This confused me, sorry. All the correlation tests I learnt such as Stern-Gerlash are using one beam? (Sorry if I am wrong) I was also told traditional interferometers are concerning about amplitude but Hanbury Brown and Twiss were concerning about intensity? Isn't the square of amplitude is the intensity? Please...
I am not sure if this belongs in the biology section, but it appears more of a quantum physics question. Mike Wiest, Associate Professor of Neuroscience at Wellesley College in the US. In 2024 he published the results of an experiment on anaesthesia which purported to point to a role of quantum processes in consciousness; here is a popular exposition: https://neurosciencenews.com/quantum-process-consciousness-27624/ As my expertise in neuroscience doesn't reach up to an ant's ear...
