On-Chip Integrated Quantum-Dot Silicon-Nitride Microdisk Lasers

Abstract

Hybrid SiN-QD microlasers coupled to a passive SiN output waveguide with 7μm diameter and record low threshold density of 27 μJ cm-2 are demonstrated. A new design and unique processing scheme starting from SiN/QD/SiN stacks offer long term stability and facilitate in depth laser characterization. This approach opens up new paths for optical communication, lab-on-a-chip, gas sensing and, potentially, on-chip cavity quantum electrodynamics and quantum optics.
