abstract = {High-power tunable lasers are intensely pursued due to
their vast application potential such as in telecom, ranging
and molecular sensing. Integrated photonics, however, is
usually considered not suitable for high-power applications
mainly due to its small size which limits the energy storage
capacity and therefore the output power. In the late 90s, to
improve the beam quality and increase the stored energy,
large-mode-area (LMA) fibers were introduced in which the
optical mode area is substantially large. Such LMA fibers
have transformed the high-power capability of fiber systems
ever since. Introducing such an LMA technology at the
chip-scale can play an equally disruptive role with high
power signal generation from an integrated photonics system.
To this end, in this work we demonstrate such a technology,
and show a very high-power tunable laser with the help of a
silicon photonics based LMA power amplifier. We show output
power reaching 1.8 W over a tunability range of 60 nm,
spanning from 1.83 µm to 1.89 µm, limited only by the seed
laser. Such an integrated LMA device can be used to
substantially increase the power of the existing integrated
tunable lasers currently limited to a few tens of
milliwatts. The power levels demonstrated here reach and
surpass that of many benchtop systems which truly makes the
silicon photonics based integrated LMA device poised towards
mass deployment for high power applications without relying
on benchtop systems.},
