摘要
This review examines axisymmetric-cavity quantum-dot microlasers whose emission spectrum is determined by whispering-gallery modes. We describe the possible designs, fabrication processes and basic characteristics of the microlasers and demonstrate the possibility of lasing at temperatures above 100 degrees C. The feasibility of creating multichannel optical sources based on a combination of a broadband quantum-dot laser and silicon microring modulators is discussed.
