Over the last 30 years, group-IV semiconductors have been intensely investigated in the quest for a fundamental direct bandgap semiconductor that could yield the last missing piece of the Si Photonics toolbox: a continuous-wave Si-based laser. Along this path, it has been demonstrated that the electronic band structure of the GeSn/SiGeSn heterostructures can be tuned into a direct bandgap quantum structure providing optical gain for lasing. In this paper, we present a versatile electrically pumped, continuous-wave laser emitting at a near-infrared wavelength of 2.

- Partial priapism is a rare condition with under 60 documented cases, often related to prolonged compression or blood clotting issues, and is marked by pain and swelling at the base of the penis.
- MRI is the preferred imaging method for diagnosis.
- The condition responds well to medical treatments like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and blood thinners, with an 82% success rate in symptom resolution, as shown in a reported case that remained symptom-free for 10 years after treatment.
