초록 | Integrating III-V lasers on silicon has provided a promising route to overcoming the critical issue of light generation in silicon-based optical circuits. Recent III-V/Si hybrid laser platforms using wafer bonding and direct growth methods have attracted much attention. However, integrating the small III-V nanolasers onto Si photonics is still challenging due to the inefficient coupling with silicon photonics and the difficulty of nanofabrication. In this work, we propose and demonstrate direct integration of a wavelength-scale III-V nanolaser onto a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide. By employing the high-precision micro-transfer printing techniques with an optimally designed photonic crystal nanolaser structure, we experimentally achieved a coupling efficiency of 83% between the InGaAsP nanobeam laser and the SOI waveguide. Our III-V nanobeam laser has an asymmetric one-dimensional photonic crystal cavity that allows uni-directional coupling to the combined III-V nanobeam waveguide with high efficiency. Through the optimized 3.2-μm-long vertical coupler in the region where III-V and SOI waveguides overlap, 88% of the light from the III-V nanolaser can theoretically be coupled to an integrated SOI waveguide. |
