Silver nanowire mediated random lasing in silica cladded dye doped polymer microstructure

In this report, we demonstrate a novel method to achieve random lasing in the diffusion regime. One of the missing features of a conventional random laser is directionality. Here, a novel cylindrical microstructure cavity made of silica polymer combination has been used to overcome this barrier. The proposed structure makes use of a doped PMMA as a core and silica as a cladding layer. This waveguide structure can be easily used as an integrated micro random laser as the outside layer material is silica. A random laser mediated by metal nanowire is demonstrated in a cladded microstructure for the first time. We also observed the lowering of threshold and spectral shift of such lasers with the nanowire concentration. A directional laser emission with a narrow spectral line FWHM = 0.19 nm was achieved in our experiments. The lasing modes from the microstructure were characterized in terms of emission wavelength, lasing threshold as well as the temporal evolution of the modes.
