Title Plastic microring lasers on fibers and wires
Date 1998
Description Photopumped, pulsed, narrow line laser emission is demonstrated using cylindrical microcavities formed by p-conjugated polymer thin films wrapped around thin glass optical fibers and metal wires with various diameters D. A variety of cavity-dependent resonant laser mode structures were observed, which for D,10 mm contain a single resonant spectral line of less than 1 Å in width. The microring lasers are also characterized by a well-defined, very low threshold excitation intensity, at which beam directionality and polarization degree dramatically increase. These findings open up the fields of lasers and fiber optics to organic materials.
