Lateral Current Injection Membrane Buried Heterostructure Lasers Integrated on 200-nm-thick Si Waveguide

Heterogeneous integration of lasers and 200-nm-thick Si waveguides is the key to realizing high-performance transmitters. A 500-μm-long DFB laser on Si waveguide exhibits 4.6-mW fiber coupled output power at 25°C and lasing up to 130°C.
