Abstract
A universal approach is demonstrated for realizing dual-wavelength lasing in organic core-shell structured microlaser arrays, which show great promise in serving as all-color laser display panels. By alternately printing hydrophilic and hydrophobic laser dye solutions on preprocessed substrates, precisely patterned core-shell heterostructure arrays were obtained. The spatially separated core and shell independently function as optical resonators to support dual-wavelength tunable lasing in each heterostructure. Such a general method enables to flexibly control the lasing wavelength of the core-shell microlasers across a wide spectral range by systematically designing the gain media. Using as-prepared microlaser arrays as display panels, full-color laser displays were achieved with a color gamut much larger than that of standard RGB space. These results provide insights for design concepts and device construction for novel optoelectronic applications.
