Problems solved by technology

However, silicon-based integrated lasers that can generate self-pulses are rarely reported, highlighting the research value and application prospects of the present invention
[0006] In the integration process, the coupling efficiency from the active area to the passive area is generally low, and the transmission loss is large, so it is necessary to design a coupling structure with a long size

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a self-pulse and continuous output silicon-based integrated semiconductor laser based on Fano resonance and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of semiconductor lasers. Background technique [0002] Existing laser pulses are mainly generated by mode-locking techniques, external modulators, and Q-switches. Mode-locking technology requires the use of reverse-biased absorbing regions and saturated absorbing elements, which have high requirements for device design; most modulators use lithium niobate crystals, and the device cost is comparable to that of lasers; Q-switches realize optical pulses based on electro-optic effects and acousto-optic effects Regulation requires the design of a complex high-voltage drive circuit with large power consumption and size. [0003] Self-pulsing lasers do not require these measures and can directly generate short pulse trains by their own mechanism. There have been many reports...
