Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate the coherent random laser emission by combining CdSe/ZnS colloidal quantum dots with hollow optical fiber. Through the localized surface plasmon resonance induced by Ag nanoparticles (NPs), well-distinguished discrete spikes are observed from the Ag modified hollow fiber loaded with CdSe/ZnS QDs solution. In addition, coherent random laser action with low threshold is also realized in the hollow optical fiber filled with high packing-density CdSe/ZnS QDs even if the Ag NPs is not introduced. The self-assembled clusters of CdSe/ZnS QDs serve as the optical gain media as well as the strong scattering centers. The angle measurement experiments show that the directional emission of random laser can be adjusted by using different pumping manners. This facile, inexpensive, low pump threshold random laser could be widely used in photonic devices and display imaging.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to publish papers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature. Here, nanotechnology is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices. It encompasses the understanding of the fundamental physics, chemistry, biology and technology of nanometre-scale objects and how such objects can be used in the areas of computation, sensors, nanostructured materials and nano-biotechnology.
