Significant improvements in the lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) platform are pushing LNOI-based laser sources to the forefront of integrated photonics. Here, we report the first, to the best of our knowledge, electrically pumped hybrid lithium niobate/III-V laser by butt coupling an InP-based optical gain chip with a LNOI photonic integrated circuit (PIC). In the PIC, a Vernier filter consisting of two LNOI microring resonators is employed to select the lasing wavelength. A wavelength tuning range of more than 36 nm is achieved in the O band. The hybrid laser has a maximum on-chip optical power of 2.5 mW and threshold current density of 2.5/. A side mode suppression ratio better than 60 dB is achieved.
