Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a system that implements a hybrid laser. This system includes a reflective gain medium (RGM) comprising an optical gain material coupled to a mirror. This RGM is coupled to a spot-size converter (SSC), which optically couples the RGM to an optical reflector through a silicon waveguide.

During operation, the RGM, the spot-size converter, the silicon waveguide and the silicon mirror collectively form a lasing cavity, wherein an effective thermo-optic coefficient (TOC) of a portion of the lasing cavity that passes through the optical gain material and the SSC material is substantially the same as the TOC of silicon. Finally, a laser output is optically coupled out of the lasing cavity.

Abstract: An optical transmitter includes: a set of reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers (RSOAs) or other reflective gain media, a set of ring filters, a set of intermediate waveguides, a shared waveguide, a shared loop mirror, and an output waveguide. Each intermediate waveguide channels light from an RSOA in proximity to an associated ring filter to cause optically coupled light to circulate in the associated ring filter. The shared waveguide is coupled to the shared loop mirror, and is located in proximity to the set of ring filters, so that light circulating in each ring filter causes optically coupled light to flow in the shared waveguide. Each RSOA forms a lasing cavity with the shared loop reflector, wherein each lasing cavity has a different wavelength associated with a resonance of its associated ring filter. The output waveguide is optically coupled to the shared loop mirror and includes an electro-optical modulator.
