Abstract
A photonic integrated circuit may include a silicon layer including a waveguide and at least one other photonic component. The photonic integrated circuit may also include a first insulating region arranged above a first side of the silicon layer and encapsulating at least one metallization level, a second insulating region arranged above a second side of the silicon layer and encapsulating at least one gain medium of a laser source optically coupled to the waveguide.
