Cover Story
The picture on the cover shows the on-chip erbium-doped lithium niobate microdisk laser, which is pumped by a beam of near-infrared light and emits the communication C-band laser. Due to the outstanding physical properties of lithium niobate, integrated frequency multipliers, modulators, and other passive devices based on lithium niobite on insulator (LNOI) thin films have been realized. However, the on-chip integrated light sources are in urgent need of development. Consequently, we developed 1 mol% erbium-doped LN crystal and its LNOI wafer on silicon substrate. Efficient on-chip integrated communication band laser emission is observed on the Er:LNOI microdisk (See the article (No. 234262) by YiAn Liu et al.).
