Description
We report on our recent developments on rare-earth-based gain and lasing directly on silicon photonic chips. We demonstrate laser emission around 1.8-1.9 $\mu$m in thulium-doped tellurium oxide coated silicon hybrid microdisks, with on-chip output powers of > 1 mW and sub-milliwatt threshold pump powers at 1.6 $\mu$m.
