Highly-Strained Germanium as a Gain Medium for Silicon-Compatible Lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Germanium-on-silicon lasers have recently been demonstrated. Our theoretical modeling shows that increasing germanium’s strain to 1.1%, which we show is achievable, can reduce the threshold for net gain by over a factor of 20.
