Compact lasers based on HPDLC gratings
We report the fabrication technique and the main emission properties of two novel all-organic laser devices based on high-resolution reflection gratings written on holographic polymer-dispersed liquid crystal materials by means of conventional holographic techniques. The first type of laser is based upon a distributed Bragg-reflector configuration whereas the second one makes use of a distributed-feedback configuration. Different monomer/liquid-crystal/photoinitiator mixtures are analysed and the main parameters affecting the grating reflectivity and the overall performances of these plastic mirrorless laser device are discussed.
