An ultrathin nonlinear optical (NLO) organic surface composed of numerous self-assembled frustum-shaped whispering-gallery-mode resonators displays both two-photon luminescence and second-harmonic-generation signals. A super-second-order increase of the NLO intensity with respect to pump power confirms the microlasing action and practical usefulness of the NLO organic surfaces.
Enantiomeric R and S type organic whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) optical micro-cavities display an enhanced CD-NLO effect due to increased light–matter interaction.
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.
