Abstract
We report on a heterogeneously integrated InP/silicon-on-insulator (SOI) laser source realized through divinylsiloxane-bis-benzocyclobutene (DVS-BCB) wafer bonding. The hybrid lasers present several new features. The III–V waveguide has a width of only 1.7 $muhbox{m}$ , reducing the power consumption of the device. The silicon waveguide thickness is 400 nm, compatible with high-performance modulator designs and allowing efficient coupling to a standard 220-nm high index contrast silicon waveguide layer. In order to make the mode coupling efficient, both the III–V waveguide and silicon waveguide are tapered, with a tip width for the III–V waveguide of around 800 nm. These new features lead to good laser performance: a lasing threshold as low as 30 mA and an output power of more than 4 mW at room temperature in continuous-wave operation regime. Continuous wave lasing up to 70 $^{circ}hbox{C}$ is obtained. Related Projects
