Electrically pumped hybrid AlGaInAs-silicon evanescent laser

TL;DR: An electrically pumped AlGaInAs-silicon evanescent laser architecture where the laser cavity is defined solely by the silicon waveguide and needs no critical alignment to the III-V active material during fabrication via wafer bonding is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent progress in lasers on silicon

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the most recent progress in this field, including low-threshold silicon Raman lasers with racetrack ring resonator cavities, the first germanium-on-silicon lasers operating at room temperature, and hybrid silicon microring and microdisk lasers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roadmap on silicon photonics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview and outlook for the silicon waveguide platform, optical sources, optical modulators, photodetectors, integration approaches, packaging, applications of silicon photonics and approaches required to satisfy applications at mid-infrared wavelengths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monolithic germanium/silicon avalanche photodiodes with 340 GHz gain-bandwidth product

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported a monolithically grown germanium/silicon avalanche photodetector with a gain-bandwidth product of 340 GHz, a keff of 0.09 and a sensitivity of −28 dBm at 10Gb s−1.
