Waveguide Integrated Organic Laser Source for Lab-on-Chip Applications

摘要

Organic lasers are promising laser sources when it comes to downsizing and flexibility. Especially Lab-on-Chip and sensor applications which are based on ridge waveguide systems face the challenge of an efficient light coupling into the waveguide network. In this paper, we report on the successful integration of organic lasers into polymeric ridge waveguides.
