Abstract :
Hybrid III-V/silicon lasers for short reach optical interconnect applications need to have a modest power dissipation and preferably also a small footprint. Furthermore they should be free of mode hops even under varying temperature conditions. In this paper a number of designs will be discussed that address this set of requirements.
