Abstract(in English) We have studied lambda-scale embedded active region photonic crystal (LEAP) lasers to realize on-CMOS-chip or chip-to-chip optical interconnects. In these short-reach optical interconnects, light sources have to be driven with very low energies. The LEAP lasers have advantages in a threshold current and operating energy, because both light and carriers are confined within the wavelength scale of the light. However, previous devices had current leakage paths on either side of an active region. In this paper, we report a new design of LEAP lasers with current blocking trenches, and its record low threshold current of 4.8 μA and an operating energy of 4.4 fJ/bit at a bit rate of 10 Gb/s.
