    Abstract: There is provided a laser, and/or a reflector for a laser cavity comprising: a ring resonator structure; and a Fabry-Perot filter connected in cascade to the ring resonator structure by a coupling waveguide. The coupling waveguide is configured to propagate light having a frequency corresponding to any of the resonant frequencies of the ring resonator structure to the Fabry-Perot filter, and the Fabry-Perot filter is configured to select one or more frequencies and return light having a frequency matching any of the selected frequencies to the ring resonator structure via the coupling waveguide.
