Electrically Tunable Organic Distributed Feedback Lasers Embedding Nonlinear Optical Molecules

摘要

Organic light-emitting compounds have revolutionized photonics and optoelectronics, opening the way to devices and applications hardly accessible by using inorganic materials. Color tunability, mechanical flexibility, large stimulated-emission cross sections, low costs and solution-based processing make active organic materials well-suited to complement inorganic photonic technologies. Using organic semiconductors in laser devices represents the most fascinating and debated field. The interest towards organic lasers relies on their potential application to optical communications,optical amplification, chemical sensing,and gain switching.
