Diffusion-driven continuous-wave-pumped organic dye lasers

We report on the realisation of ultra-small-modevolume tunable dye lasers based on hemispherical open microcavities. The cavity mode volume is of the order of cubic micrometers, such that self-diffusion of the dye molecules allows continuous wave operation over several minutes without the need for d...
