    Polydispersed powders (Nd3+:YVO4) for ultra efficient random lasers
    2018 - WETTER, NIKLAUS U.; GIEHL, JULIA M.; BUTZBACH, FELIX; ANACLETO, DANILO; JIMENEZ-VILLAR, ERNESTO
    Random lasers hold the potential for cheap, coherent light sources that can be miniaturized and molded into any shape with several other added benefits such as speckle-free imaging; however, they require improvements specifically in terms of efficiency. This paper details for the first time a strategy for increasing the efficiency of a random laser that consists in using smaller particles, trapped between large particles to serve as absorption and gain centers whereas the large particles control mainly the light diffusion into the sample. Measurements of backscattering cone, sample absorption, reflection, and laser emission are used to determine the samples’ transport mean free path, fill fractions, laser efficiency, and the average photon path lengths inside the scattering medium for backscattered pump photons. A record slope efficiency of 50% is reached by optimizing pump photon diffusion and absorption in a powder pellet composed by a polydispersed particle size distribution (smaller particles between bigger ones) from a grinded and sieved 1.33 mol% yttrium vanadate doped with neodymium crystal with mean particle size of 54 μm.

    Optimizing grain size distribution in Nd:YVO4 powder pellets for random laser action with high efficiency
    2017 - WETTER, NIKLAUS U.; JIMENEZ-VILLAR, E.; GHIEL, JULIA M.; BUTZBACH, FELIX; TAYRA, VICTOR
    We demonstrate a volumetric random laser with an optical efficiency of 15%. We use a 1.33 mol% Nd:YVO4 crystal, grind it and mix the particles into ten different size distributions with mean particle sizes ranging from approximately 10 micrometers to 100 micrometers. After pressing into pellets, each of the ten groups has its transport mean free path calculated from the distribution spectra and experimentally measured by means of its backscattering cone. We then calculate the fill fractions of each sample. The pellets are diode-pumped at 806.5 nm. Linewidth narrowing and output power are measured as a function of absorbed pump power. We demonstrate that the smaller particles, trapped between large particles, serve as gain centers whereas the large particles control the light diffusion into the sample. By optimizing diffusion and gain we achieve high slope efficiency.
