TL;DR: Monolithically grow quantum-dot-based photonic crystal membrane lasers directly on an on-axis silicon substrate to form the basis of future monolithic light sources for high-density optical interconnects in future large-scale silicon electronic and photonic integrated circuits.

TL;DR: In this article, the InAs/GaAs QD microdisk laser was grown on planar on-axis Si (001) substrate with an ultra-low lasing threshold at room temperature under continuous-wave optical pumping.

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile solution method via temperature modulation was proposed to synthesize CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite crystals with sub-circular and quasi-cubic shapes for whispering gallery resonant mode and Fabry-Perot mode lasing emission, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, a curved visible microdisk laser with singlemode lasing emission and a high quality factor of ∼17,000 was presented, which enabled a 3D spatial intensity distribution of whispering gallery modes and provided an extra degree of freedom for the confined photons.

TL;DR: Microscale local strain gauges with low-power consumption and large strain range were demonstrated by integrating microdisk lasers in a deformable and flexible polymer substrate and the lasing spectra of micro disk lasers were sensitive to substrate deformation and can be modulated by strains.
