Stimulated emission of near-infrared radiation by current injection into silicon (100) quantum well
We describe the observation of stimulated emissions by current injections into a silicon quantum well. The device consists of a free standing membrane with a distributed feedback resonant cavity fabricated by state-of-the-art silicon processes. The emission spectra have multimode structures peaked in the near-infrared region above the submilliampere threshold currents at room temperatures. Consequently, electronics and photonics should be able to be converged on chips by using silicon quantum well laser diodes.

Abstract

We describe the observation of stimulated emissions by current injections into a silicon quantum well. The device consists of a free standing membrane with a distributed feedback resonant cavity fabricated by state-of-the-art silicon processes. The emission spectra have multimode structures peaked in the near-infrared region above the submilliampere threshold currents at room temperatures. Consequently, electronics and photonics should be able to be converged on chips by using silicon quantum well laser diodes.
