We have studied the spectroscopic and lasing characteristics of active media based on two synthe sized boron fluoride complexes of alkyl substituted dipyrrolylmethenes and the photostability of the com plexes in comparison with complexes of this kind that were previously studied in the literature under identical excitation conditions. We have determined and analyzed conditions under which new compounds have either merits or drawbacks as compared to the known dye with respect to both lasing efficiency and resource char acteristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
