Tiny electrically pumped micro-lasers epitaxially grown on industry standard silicon substrates

A group of researchers successfully demonstrated record-small electrically pumped micro-lasers epitaxially grown on industry standard (001) silicon substrates in a recent study. The thresholds and footprints are orders of magnitude smaller than those previously reported lasers epitaxially grown on Si.
