GeSn alloys are the most promising direct band gap semiconductors to demonstrate full CMOS-compatible laser integration with a manufacturing from Group-IV materials. Here, we show that room temperature lasing, up to 300 K, can be obtained with GeSn. This is achieved in microdisk resonators fabricated on a GeSn-On-Insulator platform by combining strain engineering with a thick layer of high Sn content GeSn.

Article Synopsis
- Whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators are popular in integrated photonics for their efficient microlaser properties, thanks to their high quality factor, compact size, and small mode volume.
- A Nd:GGG crystal was transformed into a thin film using an ion implantation-enhanced etching technique, and then shaped into a 20 μm microdisk using focused ion beam technology.
- The microdisk's placement impacted its heat dissipation and laser performance, showing different laser thresholds (32 μW on a holder and 17 μW on a wafer) and varying mode shifts in response to the thermal conditions during operation.
Classical and quantum nonreciprocity have important applications in information processing due to their special one-way controllability for physical systems. In this paper we investigate the nonreciprocal transmission and quantum correlation by introducing the dissipative coupling into a linear coupling system consisting of two microdisk resonators. Our research results demonstrate that even in the case of a stationary resonator, dissipative coupling can effectively induce nonreciprocity within the system.

Cavity optomechanical systems have enabled precision sensing of magnetic fields, by leveraging the optical resonance-enhanced readout and mechanical resonance-enhanced response. Previous studies have successfully achieved mass-produced and reproducible microcavity optomechanical magnetometry (MCOM) by incorporating Terfenol-D thin films into high-quality (Q) factor whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavities. However, the sensitivity was limited to 585 pT Hz, over 20 times inferior to those using Terfenol-D particles.

Hybrid microresonators have served an intriguing platform for fundamental research and applied photonics. Here, we study the plasmonics-engineered coupling between degenerate optical whispering gallery modes, which can be tuned in a complex space featuring the dissipative strong, dispersive strong, and weak coupling regimes. Experimentally, the engineering of a single plasmonic resonance to a cavity mode family is examined in a waveguide-integrated high-Q microdisk, from which the complex coupling coefficients are extracted and agree well with theoretical predictions.

Carbon nanotubes are a telecom band emitter compatible with silicon photonics, and when coupled to microcavities, they present opportunities for exploiting quantum electrodynamical effects. Microdisk resonators demonstrate the feasibility of integration into the silicon platform. Efficient coupling is achieved using photonic crystal air-mode nanobeam cavities.
