Miniaturized lasers with high spectra purity and switchable output are of crucial importance for various ultracompact photonic devices. However, it still remains a great challenge to simultaneously control the wavelength and mode purity of microscale lasers due to the insensitive response of traditional materials to external stimuli. In this work, we propose a strategy to realize switchable single-mode microlasers in perovskite microwires (MWs) coupled with responsive organic microdisk cavities. The perovskite MW therein serves as an excellent laser source to deliver multiple lasing modes, while the microdisk functions as a spectral filter to achieve single-mode outcoupling. Furthermore, on account of the sensitive responsiveness of organic materials, reversible wavelength-switching of single-mode laser can be realized through adjusting the resonant modes of the microdisk cavity filter. The results will provide guidance for the rational design of nanophotonic devices with novel performances based on the characteristic of organic materials.
微型化的激光具有高光谱纯度和可切换的输出,这对于各种超紧凑的光子器件至关重要。然而,由于传统材料对外界刺激的不敏感响应,仍然很难同时控制微尺度激光器的波长和模式纯度。在这项工作中,我们提出了一种在与响应性有机微盘腔耦合的钙钛矿微丝 (MW) 中实现可切换单模微激光器的策略。其中的钙钛矿 MW 用作优异的激光源,以提供多个激光模式,而微盘用作光谱滤波器,以实现单模输出耦合。此外,由于有机材料的敏感响应性,通过调整微盘腔滤波器的共振模式,可以实现单模激光的可逆波长切换。研究结果将为基于有机材料特性的新型性能的纳米光子器件的合理设计提供指导。
