The two-dimensional structure of a random gain medium was designed to obtain the specified emission spectrum from a random laser. Structural optimization was performed using a direct binary search method. The simulation results showed that the emitted light can be concentrated within one or more specific wavelength ranges. The effect of the fabrication errors on the optimized laser emission spectrum was also examined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
