Solid-state organic amplifiers and lasers are attractive for hybrid integration due to their compatibility with different material platforms, straightforward processing, and possibility to optimize easily their optical and electronic properties by molecular engineering. Advances in the gain medium design and synthesis in combination with new resonator architectures led to tremendous improvements in temporal and spectral properties, lifetime stability, gains produced and operating threshold powers, which triggered interest in their use for a broad range of integrated photonic applications. In this contribution, the current state-of-the-art in the field of organic solid-state amplifiers and lasers is reviewed from the aspects of fabrication technology, gain materials, and device performance. Furthermore, examples of the progress of this technology from a laboratory curiosity to one that demonstrates practical integrated photonic applications are highlighted. An outlook is also provided on research areas and applications that are likely to shape further developments of this technology. (Figure reprinted from [296],

“…The solvent-free technique is strongly desired for optical fiber drawing technique since the impurities and solvent residues cause the main problems (e.g., volume bobbling) during heating the preform. In addition, the organic dye-doped polymers provide interesting fluorescence properties as they assure high doping level, efficient luminescence in visible and near infrared spectrum and high quantum yield despite a short lifetime of the excited state (typically few ns) [34][35][36]. The disadvantage of using organic luminescent markers is photobleaching effect, especially for high energy excitation radiation.…”

Abstract:The article presents fabrication and luminescent properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) fiber doped by Oxazine 170 perchlorate. The bright fluorescence of polymeric fiber (at molar fluorescent organic dye concentration 4.3 × 10 −5 ) was characterized in terms of spectrum and signal attenuation vs. the fiber length. The significant changes in fluorescence spectrum (λ max red shift average slope 4.6 nm/cm and Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) increasing slope 6.7 nm/cm) have been noticed for the length of the fiber (0.02-0.08 m) which corresponds to a high overlapping region of absorption and emission spectra of used dye. The red shift of λ max (c.a. 80 nm) was presented in fabricated polymeric fiber at distance 0.85 m. The obtained characteristics can be used for luminescent properties optimization of fluorescent organic-dye-doped PMMA fiber.

“…In such circumstances, organic dyes are frequently used in polymer optical fiber technology. The step and gradient refractive index profile and Rhodamine B, Rhodamine 6G, and Oxazine 4 optical amplifiers were presented [27][28][29][30]. The possibility of light amplification in organic dyes doped fibers is especially important in terms of compact devices fabrication as the absorption cross section is much higher than in rare earth ions.…”

Optical signal amplification in the waveguiding structure of optical fibers can be used for optical telecommunication systems and new light sources constructions. Organic dyes doped materials are interesting for new applications in polymeric optical fibers technology due to their benefits (efficient fluorescence, high absorption cross section, and easy processing). This article presents a numerical simulation of gain in poly(methyl methacrylate) optical fiber doped by Oxazine 170 Perchlorate. The calculated gain characteristic for the used dye molar concentration (0.2 ⋅ 10 −6 -1.4 ⋅ 10 −6 ) and pump power (1-10 kW) is presented. The fabricated fluorescent polymeric optical fiber is also shown. The presented analysis can be used for optical amplifier construction based on dye-doped polymeric optical fiber (POF).
