We report on InP-based photonic crystal lasers operating at at room temperature, integrated with and evanescently coupled to silicon on insulator (SOI) waveguides. By optically pumping at through the SOI wires, pulsed laser emission from line defect photonic crystal waveguides accurately aligned to the silicon circuitry is demonstrated.
