In this article,the recent progress of Ⅲ-Ⅴ quantum dot lasers on silicon substrates for silicon photonic integration is reviewed.By introducing various epitaxial techniques,room-temperature 1.3-μm InAs/GaAs quantum dot laser on Si,Ge and SiGe substrates have been achieved respectively.Quantum dot lasers on Ge substrate has an ultra-low threshold current density of 55.2 A/cm^2 at room temperature,which can operate over 60℃ in continuous-wave mode.Puthermore,by using the SiGe virtual substrate,at 30 ℃ and an output power of 16.6 mW,a laser lifetime of 4600 h has been reached,which indicates a bright future for the large-scale photonic integration.
