Polymer Lasers Produced by Soft Lithography

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Scientists at the University of St. Andrews in the UK have fabricated semiconducting polymer distributed feedback lasers in less than two minutes using solvent-assisted microcontact molding. The researchers' work, which was published in the June 9 issue of Applied Physics Letters, suggests that it should be possible to produce active photonic devices cheaply and easily using soft lithography techniques. Soft lithography reduces process complexity and manufacturing costs because it enables the user to replicate many copies of a polymer device from a high-quality master whose negative...Read full article
