    Abstract: Examples include hybrid silicon photonic device structures. Some examples include a method of integrating a photodetector with a photonic device on a silicon wafer to make a hybrid silicon photonic device structure. A dielectric layer is established on the silicon wafer. A pit is formed in a portion of the dielectric layer and the silicon wafer, wherein a bottom of the pit is silicon. A germanium layer is grown in the pit such that a top of the germanium layer is lower than a top of the silicon wafer. The germanium layer comprises the photodetector. A photonic device material that comprises the photonic device is bonded to the silicon wafer without planarization of the silicon wafer.

    Abstract: An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a ring waveguide and bus waveguide. The ring waveguide has a first coupled portion associated with a first modal index, and the bus waveguide includes a second coupled portion associated with a second modal index. The second coupled portion is evanescently coupleable to the first coupled portion. A laser outcoupling and associated lasing output of the device is variable based on varying a difference between the first modal index and the second modal index to vary coupling between the first coupled portion and the second coupled portion, without varying modal indices of non-coupled portions of the ring waveguide and bus waveguide.

    Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein provide for improving phase tuning efficiency of optical devices, such as a hybrid metal-on-semiconductor capacitor (MOSCAP) III-V/Si micro-ring laser. The present disclosure integrates silicon devices into a waveguide structural of the optical devices disclosed herein, for example, a waveguide resistor heater, a waveguide PIN diode, and waveguide PN diode. In some examples, the optical devices is a MOSCAP formed by a dielectric layer between two semiconductor layers, which provides for small phase tuning via plasma dispersion and/or carrier dispersion effect will occur depending on bias polarity. The plasma dispersion and/or carrier dispersion effect is enhanced according to implementations disclosed herein by heat, carrier injection, and/or additional plasma dispersion based on the silicon devices disclosed integrated into the waveguide.
