Abstract Technological platforms offering efficient integration of III-V semiconductor lasers with silicon electronics are eagerly awaited by industry.

The first circuits of such type were fabricated using heterogeneous integration of semiconductor lasers by bonding the III-V chips onto silicon substrates.
