Abstract

In this paper, we review the current status of the hybrid silicon photonic integration platform with emphasis on its prospects for increased integration complexity. The hybrid silicon platform is maturing fast as increasingly complex circuits are reported with tens of integrated components including on-chip lasers. It is shown that this platform is well positioned and holds great potential to address future needs for medium-scale photonic integrated circuits.
