We demonstrate a unidirectional ring diode laser based on hybrid integration of a hook-shaped traveling-wave semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and a Taiji ring resonator. The additional crossover bending waveguide inside the silicon nitride Taiji ring introduces a non-reciprocal loss in the laser cavity while the gain is provided by a multiple depth etched hook-shaped SOA. We present the detailed design flow for both active and passive components of the unidirectional hybrid diode laser. This work paves the way to use a hook-shaped SOA-based hybrid platform for various applications including optical sensing, all-optical switching, photonic memories, and topological optics.
