Abstract:
This tutorial reviews the latest developments in membrane lasers, including photonic crystal lasers and heterogeneously integrated lasers on Si. These devices are directly modulated with low operating energy. Heterogeneous integration technologies enable us to fabricate large-scale photonic integrated circuits.
