Abstract:
We demonstrate a novel selectable multi-wavelength hybrid III-V/Si laser using in-homogeneously broadened quantum dot gain material. Simultaneous stable lasing on two wavelengths is achieved while maintaining low RIN one order of magnitude better than previously demonstrated with mode-locked lasers.
