Lasing in organic mixed-crystal thin films with cavities composed of naturally formed cracks

Abstract

This study investigates the possibility that a crack pair that is naturally formed in the course of sample preparation functions as a laser cavity. Lasing with longitudinal mode structures has been reported in mixed-crystal thin films composed of fluorene and anthracene without artificial cavity structure. In the present study, it was shown that lasing is observed only when an excitation spot covers parallel pairs of cracks. The longitudinal mode intervals of the stimulated emission spectra for several crack pairs were found to be proportional to the inverse of the crack spacing. Furthermore, the interval for the artificially fabricated metal cavity followed the same linear relation. These results indicate that the crack pairs can function as laser cavities.
