TL;DR: In this article, a turnkey regime for soliton microcombs is demonstrated, in which solitons are generated by switching on a co-integrated pump laser, eliminating the need for photonic and electronic control circuitry.

TL;DR: In this article, a high Q factor of 260 million was achieved in an electrically pumped integrated laser with a corresponding short-term linewidth of 12'Hz and the same configuration was shown to relieve the dispersion requirements for microcomb generation that have handicapped certain nonlinear platforms.

TL;DR: In this article, a soliton microcomb was demonstrated in a monolithic high-Q LN resonator, where the LN soliton mode-locking process self-starts and allows bi-directional switching of soliton states.

TL;DR: Using silicon nitride waveguides processed by plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition, full integration of ultrahigh-Q resonators with other photonic devices is now possible, representing a critical advance for future photonic circuits and systems.
