โฆ Synopsis
The team of V. Reboud at the Tyndall National Institute, Cork, Ireland, report on the fabrication and characterization of two-dimensional polymer photonic crystal band-edge lasers operating in the visible range. The components have been fabricated in a dye chromophore-loaded polymer matrix by nanoimprint lithography and high-symmetry bandedge modes are used to generate laser emission. Their work demonstrates the potential of nanoimprint lithography for the fabrication of two-dimensional planar photonic crystal structures in an active medium in a one-step process.
