Abstract:
We propose a general approach for obtaining dual-wavelength organic microlasers in amphiphilic Janus resonators, where hydrophilic and hydrophobic dyes can be spatially separated via polarity-driven encapsulation. Low-threshold dual-wavelength lasing was achieved in a single Janus particle with well-modulated output. This universal approach enables flexibly designing the lasing wavelength of the Janus microlasers in the full visible spectrum by systematically altering the encapsulated laser dyes. Our findings demonstrate a promising route to the photonic integration at the micro-/nanoscale that may lead to the innovation of concepts and device architectures for multifunctional optoelectronic applications.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
