Abstract:
Chiral microlasers hold great promise for optoelectronics from integrated photonic devices to high-density quantum information processing. Despite significant progress in lead-halide perovskite emitters, chiral lasing with high dissymmetry factors (glum) has not yet been realized. Here, we demonstrate chiral single-mode microlasers with exceptional stability and tunable emission across the visible range by combining CsPbClxBr3-x perovskite microrods (MRs) with a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) layer. The MRs lase via a whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavity and confer chirality through the encapsulated CLC layer, thus exhibiting circularly polarized lasing with dissymmetry factors reaching 1.62. Importantly, we demonstrate wavelength-tunable high dissymmetry chiral lasers in a broad spectral range by tuning the halide composition and using CLC layers with the desired photonic bandgap (PBG). This facile approach to generate chiral lasing not only is applicable to semiconductor nano- and microcrystals but also paves the way for potential integration into nanoscale photonic devices.
