A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Photonics
Researchers from the Research Center Jülich (FZJ), the University of Stuttgart, the Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics (IHP) and their French partner CEA-Leti have achieved a breakthrough by developing the first electrically pumped continuous-wave semiconductor laser composed entirely of group IV elements, commonly known as the “silicon family”.
