Monolithic Ge-on-Si lasers for integrated photonics

We report room temperature Ge-on-Si lasers with direct gap emission at 1590-1610 nm. Modeling of Ge/Si double heterojunction structures, which is supported by experimental results of Ge/Si LEDs, indicates the feasibility of electrically pumped lasers.
