Abstract:
In this study we characterize laser action phenomena in special micrometric configurations of dye doped ionic liquids confined in special geometries. Because of low vapor pressure, low inflammability, liquidity over a broad temperature range, recyclability these matrices are excellent contenders for building, as demonstrated, a series of interesting mirrorless laser devices. Cylindrical micro-capillaries and special micro-lens array systems grant the possibility to obtain highly-compact hazard-free narrow banded (FWHM ca. 0.5 nm for each laser mode) emitters that outshine because of the low laser threshold (a few microJ/pulse in some situations), superior efficiency, long term robustness, cheap construction costs and versatility in terms of potential configurations. A detailed spectral analysis for the designed samples and an interpretation of the far field modal profiles is performed, which clearly confirms a random laser behavior for these systems. In addition, the presented small-size optical systems are also highly robust and prone for immediate exploitation in the micro technological arena.
