【 摘 要 】

We discuss the thermal management of microring lasers on hybrid silicon platform in order to optimize their high-temperature lasing performance. The thermal impedance of microring lasers was improved with a novel thermal shunt design. We report a significant improvement of hybrid silicon microring laser performance, with the maximum continuous wave lasing stage temperature up to 105 ^oC.
