Green perovskite distributed feedback lasers

This work was supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK Grants; EP/K503162/1, EP/M506631/1, EP/M025330/1 and EP/L017008/1. IDWS acknowledges funding from a Royal Society Wolfson research merit award.A visible perovskite distributed feedback laser is fabricated for the first time. Through the use of nanocrystal pinning, highly luminescent methylammonium lead bromide films are used to produce stable lasers emitting at 550 nm, with a low threshold of 6 µJcm−2. The lasers were able to support multiple polarisations, and could be switched between transverse magnetic and transverse electric mode operation through simple tuning of the distributed feedback grating period.Publisher PDFPeer reviewe
