We review recent progress of the direct epitaxy and fabrication of quantum dot （QD） lasers and integrated guided-wave devices on silicon. This approach involves the development of molecular beam epitaxial growth of self- organized QD lasers directly on silicon substrates and their monolithic integration with amorphous silicon waveguides and quantum well electroabsorption modulators. Additionally, we report a preliminary study of long-wavelength （〉 1.3 μm） QD lasers grown on silicon and integrated crystalline silicon waveguides using membrane transfer technology.展开更多
