| contents | Light source is indispensable component in on-chip system. Compared with hybrid or heterogeneous integrated laser, monolithically integrated laser is more suitable for high density photonic integrated circuit (PIC) since the capability of large-scale manufacturing, lower active-passive coupling loss and less test complexity. Recent years have seen the spark of researches on rare-earth ion doped thin film lithium niobate (REI:TFLN), demonstrations have been made both in classical and quantum chips. However, low output power and limited quantum emitting efficiency hinder the application of the chip-scale laser source based on REI:TFLN. Here a highly efficient integrated laser assisted by cascaded amplifiers is proposed and experimentally prepared on Erbium-doped TFLN. A slope efficiency of 0.43% and a linewidth of 47.86 kHz are obtained. The maximum integrated laser power is 7.989 μW. Our results show a viable solution to improve efficiency by self-amplification without changing the intrinsic quantum emitting efficiency of the material, and our design has potential application in incorporating with functional devices such as optical communications, integrated quantum memory and quantum emission. |
