The invention discloses an organic
photonic crystal microcavity
laser, and belongs to the field of active photonic devices and organic lasers, a light-emitting layer of the
laser is prepared from an organic material, and a periodic
photonic crystal structure is constructed on a functional layer of the
laser. The construction method of the
photonic crystal structure comprises the following steps:
etching a functional layer of the laser to form the
photonic crystal structure with periodic holes; or, the middle area of the functional layer of the laser is reserved and not etched, the periodic holes are etched in the functional layer without the middle area, and the formed
photonic crystal structure is a defect type microcavity structure with the middle area not etched. The laser is of an electric pump type or an optical pump type, and an electric pump type light-emitting layer is made of Alq3 or DCM. And the material of the optical pump type light emitting layer is a mixture of PMMA (
polymethyl methacrylate) and PM-597 or t-Bu-RhB. The structures can form an in-plane
resonant cavity with a high Q value, a high
limiting factor of a
light field in a light emitting area and a photonic
crystal area is realized, and the performance of the laser is improved.
