We theoretically investigate the relative intensity noise (RIN) of a silicon hybrid laser by taking into account two-dimension transverse modes in the hybrid waveguide. It shows that, when only one transverse mode is excited, RIN spectrum of the hybrid laser exhibits a larger peak value at a lower r...
