Abstract

Free-space coupled membrane photonic devices are highly desirable for 3D optical interconnects, free space communications, imaging, sensing, and ranging applications. Based on transfer printing processes, heterogeneously integrated active photonic crystal devices can be built on the common silicon platform. In this talk, I will report recent progresses related to hybrid integrated photonic crystal surface-emitting membrane lasers on silicon substrate, with a focus on monolayer tungsten disulfide (2D WS2) photonic crystal lasers. Scaling towards energy efficiency VCSEL-type architectures will be discussed.
