Researchers from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have reported the world’s first 1.5 μm III-V lasers directly grown on the industry-standard 220 nm SOI (silicon-on-insulators) wafers without buffer, potentially paving an opening to the “holy grail” for present silicon (Si-) photonics research.
