“…Some of the design advantages of this technology, over fabricating these lasers on indium phosphide, are as follows. First, the waveguide losses are lower by about a factor of ten, which makes long on-chip cavities possible [4], [5]. Second, two-photon absorption is around two orders of magnitude lower in silicon [6].…”

We present results from two hybrid silicon modelocked lasers, each with a 2 GHz cavity and one with an intracavity ring resonator filter. We compare the performance of the two lasers with respect to the harmonic mode-locking behavior at 20 GHz, i.e., the tenth harmonic. The filter based laser design passively mode-locked at 20 GHz with an electrical spur mode suppression >45 dB. Furthermore, an optical supermode suppression of 55 dB and an RF linewidth of 52 kHz was also observed. Hybrid mode-locking the laser without the filter required 10 dBm input microwave power for 25 dB (electrical) spur mode suppression as opposed to the design with the filter showing >45 dB suppression at 0 dBm input power.

Super-Long Cavity, Monolithically Integrated 1-GHz Hybrid Mode-Locked InP Laser for All-Optical Sampling

Abstract: A 1-GHz hybrid mode-locked monolithic semiconductor laser on an InP platform is demonstrated. Monolithic integration of the 4.1 cm cavity mode-locked laser with active quantum well and passive waveguide can be achieved with 400 nm wide and 3μm deeply etched mirrors.
