| contents | Colloidal nanocrystals are unique optical gain materials due to their high intrinsic absorption, excellent quantum yield, and tunable emission. However, integration of colloidal nanocrystal solutions into photonic systems for lasing applications is challenging since high concentration levels are required for optical amplification. Here, we address this challenge by integrating colloidally dispersed core/crown CdSe/CdS 2D nanoplatelets in liquid-core optical fibers as a scalable platform. The platform allowed achieving sufficiently effective gain for amplified spontaneous emission at a threshold as low as 1.8 kW/cm2 under quasi-CW pumping, even at a con-centration two orders of magnitude lower than the minimal concentration considered to be required for gain in conventional colloidal quantum dots. We show that the low-loss optical waveguiding of the fiber is crucial for efficient stimulated emission, rendering liquid-core fibers as a promising and unique platform to realize lasers based on colloidally dispersed nanocrystals. |
