    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Optics and Photonics
    • Nanotechnology

    Background:

    • Random lasers offer unique properties like low-threshold operation and broad tunability.
    • Developing efficient random laser schemes requires effective feedback and gain mechanisms.
    • Nanostructured materials provide opportunities for novel optical feedback and light confinement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To construct and investigate a novel random laser utilizing a waveguide scheme with ZnSe nanosheets and dye-doped polymers.
    • To analyze the factors contributing to narrow-band and low-threshold operation in the designed random laser.
    • To explore the feedback mechanisms and output characteristics of the developed active waveguide random laser.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of a waveguide structure by coating randomly distributed ZnSe nanosheet matrices with a dye-doped polymer layer.
    • Characterization of the random laser performance, including spectral width (FWHM) and threshold behavior.
    • Investigation of feedback mechanisms using power Fourier transform of emission spectra.

    Main Results:

    • Successful operation of a random laser with a narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of approximately 0.65 nm.
    • Demonstration of a distinct two-threshold behavior corresponding to transverse magnetic (TM) and transverse electric (TE) modes.
    • Identification of strong scattering from ZnSe nanostructures and confinement by the active waveguide as critical for laser performance.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed active waveguide scheme effectively confines radiation for efficient amplification in a random laser.
    • The combination of nanostructures and waveguide provides strong feedback essential for narrow-band, low-threshold random lasing.
    • This approach enables potential directional output, opening avenues for advanced laser applications.
