  • Abstract
    We demonstrate an ultra-low threshold nanowire laser monolithically integrated on a (001) silicon substrate. By using a V-groove template we were able to reduce the laser threshold by one order of magnitude (0.19pJ per pulse) compared with our earlier devices and dramatically increased the yield throughout the wafer.
