چکیده

A solid-state laser based on a dye-doped deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) matrix is described. A thin solid film of DNA has been fabricated by treating with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and used as a host for the laser dye Rhodamine 6G. The edge emitted spectrum clearly indicated the existence of laser modes and amplified spontaneous emission. Lasing was obtained by pumping with a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm. For a pump energy of 10 mJ/pulse, an intense line with FWHM approximately 0.2 nm was observed at 566 nm due to selective mode excitation.

Temperature-tunable lasing from dye-doped chiral microdroplets encapsulated in a thin polymeric film

In the last decade, much interest has grown around the possibility to use liquid-crystal droplets as optical microcavities and lasers. In particular, 3D laser emission from dye-doped cholesteric liquid crystals confined inside microdroplets paves the way for many applications in the field of sensors or tunable photonics. Several techniques can be used to obtain small microresonators as, for exa...

Effect of γ-irradiation on polyvinyl alcohol films doped with some dyes and their use in dosimetric studies

Using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), water-soluble polymer, thin films were prepared by incorporating some dyes. On subjecting these films to γ-radiation, it was found that there is a gradual change in the colour. In case of PVA film containing methyl red sudden discolouration occurs at a dose of 30 kGy, however, optical density change was not very contrasting. In case of acid red-4, there is a gradu...
