Hybrid active photonic crystal structures: III-V based slow light waveguides or nanocavities coupled to SOI wires

摘要

We report the fabrication of hybrid structures composed of III-V active photonic crystal bonded on top of silicon wires. Laser is obtained from slow light waveguides and from nanocavities made in an InP-based membrane containing quantum wells, the emitted light being coupled evanescently to the SOI wires.
