A device for a gain medium for a semiconductor laser has an active region, a buffer layer, a substrate, and an etch stop between the buffer layer and the substrate. The device is bonded to a silicon platform having silicon devices, such as a waveguide and mirror. The substrate is removed, after bonding the device to the platform. The buffer layer is made of different material than the substrate to reduce undercut of the buffer layer during substrate removal compared to a buffer layer made of the same material as the substrate. |
