Abstract :
This paper reports the first demonstration of a thin film (microns thick) heterogeneously integrated edge emitting laser bonded to a Si host substrate. Preliminary processing for embedding these thin film lasers into BCB polymer waveguides has also been discussed toward the implementation of embedded edge emitting sources in planar lightwave circuits.
