The new proposal of a far-infrared laser employing intraband transitions in the system of quantum dots is briefly described. The conditions for inversion of population for electrons in the quantum dot matrix created by an electric-field focusing in narrow GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well are discussed. The laser is planned to be pumped by periodically repeated rapid creation and destruction of the quantum dot matrix allowing for repeated filling of the dot levels with electrons from a quantum well. Some major results of the analysis of the kinetics of the electron-photon system are presented.
