dc.description.abstract | We demonstrate laser power conversion using an edge-coupled waveguide configuration. A laser with an emission energy of 0.87 eV (1427 nm) optically pumps a second with an emission energy of 0.80 eV (1540 nm), achieving the maximum possible open circuit voltage of 0.83 V due to optically pumped lasing. A fiber to device power conversion efficiency of 33% is achieved with internal power conversion efficiency ranging from 57% to 51%. The voltage at maximum power is 0.6 V, which is a record for the wavelength range. The same optically pumped device is used for effectively power-free 500 Mbps upstream data transmission, enabling compact powering and signaling for emerging applications in minimally invasive medical interventions and remote photonics. | en |
