    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for processing a laser device, for example a III-V on silicon laser, including: providing a carrier substrate; forming a grating structure on the carrier substrate, wherein the grating structure delimits a cavity on a surface of the carrier substrate; placing a die in the cavity and bonding the die to the carrier substrate, wherein the die comprises an active region including a III-V semiconductor material; transferring the die from the carrier substrate to a silicon substrate by bonding an exposed side of the die to the silicon substrate and subsequently debonding the carrier substrate from the die; and forming a photonic structure, for example a silicon waveguide, coupled to the die.

    Abstract: An optical device including a waveguide grating is disclosed. The optical device may be used as an optical cavity for a laser device, for instance, of an integrated laser device for light detection and ranging (Lidar) applications. In one aspect, the optical device includes a waveguide grating for guiding light, a heating layer provided beneath or above the waveguide grating, and two or more contacts for passing a current through the heating layer, to generate heat in the heating layer. The heating layer is thermally coupled to the waveguide grating and is optically decoupled from the waveguide grating.
