Title Lasing and stimulated emission in ∏-conjugated polymers
Date 2000-01
Description Recent studies of lasing and stimulated emission in luminescent -conjugated polymers performed by our group are presented. Optical properties of cylindrical high- polymer microcavities are discussed. The emission spectra of plastic microring and microdisk lasers are measured and analyzed. Light-emitting polymer microdiodes are demonstrated as possible candidates for electrically driven plastic lasers. In addition, two unusual regimes of stimulated emission characterized by narrow laser-like spectral lines are demonstrated in thin waveguiding polymer films. These regimes may be associated with random optical feedback introduced by light scattering inside the polymer films and amplified Raman scattering, respectively.
