This severely hampers not only the development of ultra-high <i>Q</i> and ultra-dark on-chip micro-lasers but also the high-density integration with other nanophotonic components. Herein, ultra-dark on-chip plasmonic lasers are experimentally realized in high-quality Ag-SiO<sub>2</sub> nanodisk lattices. The out-of-plane diffraction channel is eliminated by using the first-order-feedback mechanism. The losses of the scattering channels are greatly decreased by fabricating high-quality Ag-SiO<sub>2</sub> nanodisk lattices. As a result, an “ultra-dark” plasmonic lattice laser with ultra-high <i>Q</i> is realized at room temperature. Linewidths of as small as Δ<i>λ</i><sub>FWHM-T</sub> ≈ 0.003 nm at visible wavelengths are deconvolution-inferred, and the corresponding <i>Q</i> factor is as high as <i>Q</i> ≈ 2.1 × 10<sup>5</sup>, which is approximately 75 times the largest <i>Q</i> factor in previous plasmonic lattice lasers. The in-plane coupling efficiency of the on-chip plasmonic lasers is approximately 99%, indicating that there is hardly any emission of free-space laser photons. The ratio of laser emission in free space (∼1%) is approximately 20 times lower than that (≥20%) reported in previous works.

By enabling comprehensive multi-parameter detection within a monolithic metasurface architecture across the 450–650 nm range, this design offers an ultra-compact form factor suitable for direct on-chip integration with CMOS imaging sensors. Experimental results at 488, 532, and 633 nm reveal full Stokes reconstruction errors below 3%, with a polarization reconstruction accuracy comparable to that of commercial polarimeters. Furthermore, the reconstruction accuracy of the wavefront phase gradient is approximately 3%, supporting real-time wavefront detection with an incident angle of up to 9°.
