Abstract:We demonstrate low threshold acceptor lasing consequent to the efficient coupling and radiative energy transfer between the donor and acceptor droplets in a dynamic array of coupled droplets named twin droplets, made using a microfluidic chip. The ability of the microdroplet to focus the incoming plane wave internally along the principle diameter, by virtue of its spherical interface and higher refractive index than the background medium, is recognized as the prime cause of observed acceptor lasing in the coup… Show more
