Abstract :
We experimentally demonstrate an optically-pumped III-V-on-SOI hybrid vertical-cavity laser that outputs light into an in-plane Si waveguide, using CMOS-compatible processes. The laser operates ~1.49 μm with a side-mode suppression ratio of ~27 dB and has a similar threshold as long-wavelength VCSELs.
