New Success Story: LaSensA

The M-ERA.NET LaSensA project introduces a novel approach to developing plasmonic nanolasers.

The innovative work focuses on an SLR-based (surface lattice resonance) nanolaser created using an assembled array of silver nanocubes. When combined with the laser dye pyrromethene-597, the device demonstrates impressive performance, lasing at 574 nm with a narrow linewidth of less than 1.2 nm and a low lasing threshold below 100 μJ cm−2. Furthermore, it produces a beam with low divergence (less than 1 mrad), even with a less-than-perfect arrangement of nanocubes.
