Photonic Crystal Surface Emitting Lasers over the Entire Visible Spectrum Based on Colloidal Nanocrystals
Silicon photonics has emerged as a robust, low-loss, integrated, particularly through the use of silicon nitride (SiNx), which offers excellent properties for visible-light applications. By now, losses as low as 1 dB/m are achievable, allowing for quality factors (Q) above 1 million.<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1</sup> SiNx's compatibility with standard CMOS fabrication processes further enhances its appeal for integrated photonic devices. However, despite its potential as a passive platform, the lack of efficient light emission from SiNx limits its wider application.
