We demonstrate epitaxially grown semiconductor membrane quantum well lasers on a SiO2/Si substrate lasing in a waveguide configuration, for potential uses as coherent light sources compatible with photonic integrated circuits. We study the emission characteristics of In0.13Ga0.87As/GaAs0.94P0.06 quantum well lasers, by using real and reciprocal space imaging. The laser cavity length is 424 μm, it emits light at 1 μm, and lasing thresholds as low as 211 mW were recorded. Control over the position and size of the laser spots by the pump was demonstrated.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
