  摘要: 

  Silicon is one of the most important semiconductor materials. Although it has been the mainstays for modern electronics, it is not widely used for light emitting sources because bulk silicon is an inefficient emitter, a result of indirect bandgap. Direct epitaxial growth of III-V nanostructures on silicon substrates is one of the most promising candidates for realizing photonic devices on a silicon platform. The major issue of monolithic integration of III-V on group IV platform is the formation of high-density threading dislocations (TDs). The TDs are caused by the lattice mismatch between the III-V materials and group IV substrates, for instance, GaAs has 4% lattice mismatch with Si. The propagation of TDs will cause high ratio of non-radiative recombination centre in III-V epitaxial active region. To stop the TD propagation, defects filter layers (DFLs) formed by InGaAs/GaAs strained-layer superlattices (SLSs) have been applied, which significantly reduce the density of TDs from ~1010/cm2 at the interface between III-V and Si to <106/cm2 in III-V active region. As a zero-dimensional material, quantum dot (QD) has three-dimensional quantum confinements, which create delta-function like density of states. Therefore, QD lasers have low threshold currents, temperature insensitive operation, and less sensitivity to threading dislocations, which are the ideal candidate to form active region in III-V lasers grown on group IV substrates. High performance QD lasers grown on Si substrates have been developed at UCL for last few years [1-4]. Here, I will show our recent development of InAs/GaAs QD lasers monolithically grown on a Si substrate. Low threshold current density (Jth) of 62.5 A/cm2, which corresponds to 12.5 A/cm2 for each of the five QD layers, has been demonstrated under cw operation at room temperature. The lasing wavelength is at 1315 nm. The output power measured from both facets is as high as 105 mW at an injection current density of 650 A/cm2, with no evidence of power saturation up to this current density. The ageing test was performed at a fixed temperature of 26 oC, with the output power monitored for a constant cw drive current of 210 mA.  An extrapolated mean time to failure of over 100,158 hours was demonstrated here. These results are a major step towards silicon-based photonics and photonic-electronic integration, and provide a route towards cost-effective monolithic integration of III-V devices on Si platform.   

    

  个人简介: 

  Huiyun Liu : PhD Thesis is on III-V quantum-dot materials and laser diodes form Institute of Semiconductor, Chinese Academy of Sciences at November 2001. After receiving his PhD, he joined the EPSRC National Centre for III-V Technologies at Sheffield University. In 2007, he was awarded Royal Society University Research Fellow, and started his academic career by taking Senior Lecturer (as Associate Professor in US) position in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at University College London with commissioning the first new Molecular Beam Epitaxy reactor in central London. In 2012, he was promoted as Chair (as Chair Professor in US)  of Semiconductor Photonics at University College London. His current research interest concentrates on the nanometre-scale engineering of low-dimensional semiconductor structures (such as quantum dots and nanowires) by using Molecular Beam Epitaxy and the development of novel optoelectronic devices including lasers, detectors, solar cells, and modulators. He co-authored more than 300 papers and hold on several patents on silicon photonics.
