Continuous-wave lasing is obtained at room temperature with a threshold current of 45 m A for the hybrid FP laser with a cavity length of 415 μm and a width of 7 μm. Near-field optical microscope images indicate an efficient output emission from the underneath evanescently-coupled silicon waveguide. Furthermore, single-mode lasing with a side-mode suppression-ratio of29 d B and a threshold current of 16 m A is realized for the 150 μm-long hybrid FP laser.展开更多

The influences of waveguide dimensions, curvature radiusand gap size on the coupling efficiency were discussed. An InP/AlGaInAs MQW ring laser with radius of 350 μm wasdesigned and realized. The experimental results show that the designed device, lasing at 1 563.2 nm with side modesuppression ratio higher than 20 dB, exhibited unidirectional bistability between the clockwise and counterclockwisemodes.展开更多
