Research


Back to Top   

By utilizing advanced laser and optical approaches, we study organic materials and nonlinear optics. We emphasis in understanding the fundamentals in interdisciplinary problems, with the aim to explore organic optical materials for applications in microcavity photonics, biomedical photonics and integrated optoelectronics. It can be classified into three subareas:

1, ultrahigh quality-factor (Q) microcavities for photonics, nonlinear optics and optoelectronics

2, exploring nano/micro luminescent materials for biomedical applications

3, organic luminescent and nonlinear optical materials

Dec 2. Our research work was published on Nature Photonics! Congrats to all the coworkers! We managed to realize the excitation of an exceptional nonlinear process, named Surface Stimulated Raman Scattering (SSRS), from a single-molecule layer grafted on a on-chip microcavity. The SSRS in turns boosts the Raman lasing performance of the device.

Surface stimulated Raman had been considered to be not possible or challenging, since 1980 after the Bell Laboratory, United States failed to obtain on clear stimulated Raman spectra from molecules on a sapphire surface. From then on, surface nonlinear optics had been solely refered to surface second harmonic generation (SSHG), a well-estiblished surface nonliear optical technique pioneered by Yuen-Ron Shen at UC Berkeley in 1980s. 

Unlike traditioal ultrafast laser spectroscopic approaches, whispering gallery mode microresonators offer an otherwise non-achievable platform/tool for the excitation of nonlinear optical processes. Our work is the first demonstration of SSRS nonlinear process.
