AbstractPortable mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy and sensing applications require widely tunable, chip-scale, single-mode sources without sacrificing significant output power. However, no such lasers have been demonstrated beyond 3 μm due to the challenge of building tunable, high quality-factor (Q) on-chip cavities. Here we demonstrate a tunable, single-mode mid-IR laser at 3.4 μm using a tunable high-Q silicon microring cavity and a multi-mode Interband Cascade Laser. We achieve single-frequency lasing with 0.4 mW output power via self-injection locking and a wide tuning range of 54 nm with 3 dB output power variation. We further estimate an upper-bound effective linewidth of 9.1 MHz and a side mode suppression ratio of 25 dB from the locked laser using a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer. Our laser platform based on a tunable high-Q microresonator can be expanded to higher wavelength quantum-cascade lasers and lead to the development of compact, high-performance mid-IR sensors for spectroscopic applications.
