“…The principles of such laser are given in Ref. 189. Laser-manipulated active lasing micro-spheres are utilized for basic studies of quantum electrodynamics 190 as well as being potential light-sources in micro-mechanical and micro-fluidic applications.…”

“…Spherical cavities store light energy predominantly in a subsurface layer, 189,190 where spatial and spectral concentration of electromagnetic energy takes place. Inelastic light scattering is proportional to the square of the Purcell factor, which accounts for an increase of photon density of states at the resonance frequency.…”

Three-dimensional laser microfabrication blends microscopy, optical nonlinear phenomena, photomodification, laser trapping, and creates novel possibilities for fabrication of micro-and nano-structures in a wide range of materials. This work reviews various implementations of laser photo-structuring and micromanipulation applied to photo-modification of various materials: glasses, crystals, polymers, gels, and liquid crystals.

“…In addition, a fully quantum-mechanical investigation using time-dependent density-functional theory is even better [43]. Moreover, many works on the calculation of spontaneous emission near spherical structures were proposed [44][45][46], and the change of spontaneous emission of radiation near a dielectric sphere could result in metal enhanced fluorescence or surface enhanced fluorescence. It is of interest to take into account the spontaneous emission within our model.…”

We establish the spaser generation conditions for nonlocal plasmonic lasers and nonlocal plasmonic core-shell lasers based on the full-wave nonlocal Mie theory. Numerical results show that the required gain threshold and the gain refractive index become large generally when the nonlocality or spatial dispersion is taken into account. This tendency can be understood by the analysis with the proposed equivalent permittivity for nonlocal metallic nanoparticles. Since the nonlocality for the compact nanoparticles is quite significant, our study will be of great importance in the design of ultrasmall nanoparticle lasers.

“…Recent advances in micro-photonics have demonstrated lasing in systems where optical feedback occurs due to disorder, multiple scattering, and Anderson localization [1,2,3,4] rather than the usual set of discrete mirrors and distributed feedback (DFB) of other types of cavity coupling [5,6]. Lasing in random structures [1,3,7,8,9,10] has gained wide interest from both theoretical and applied science fields.…”

Lasing in dye solution-embedded inverse silica opal structures was investigated. The opal films were prepared by sedimentation of polystyrene microspheres on a cover glass. The polystyrene structures were inverted using sol-gel infiltration of silica and subsequent removal of polystyrene. Photoluminescence of rhodamine (rhodamine B, 6G and sulfo-rhodamine 101) dye solutions embedded into the inverse silica opal structures exhibited clear signatures of the lasing via a distributed feedback (DFB) and gain modulation. The refractive index contrast between the dye and the inverse opal was small enough (approximately 0.03%) for the formation of refractive index coupling between the lasing modes. The lasing spectrum exhibited a highly regular periodic structure of modal peaks, rather than the chaotic superposition of peaks reported in previous studies. Lasing modes having a spectral width of about 0.25 nm and a free spectral range of about 0.75 nm appeared at the position of the maximum gain (the maximum fluorescence of the dye).
