Submicrometer perovskite plasmonic lasers at room temperature

) crystals, as small as 0.58 μm by 0.56 μm by 0.32 μm (cuboid) and 0.79 μm by 0.66 μm by 0.18 μm (plate), on polymer-coated gold substrates at room temperature. Our experimental and simulation data obtained from more than 100 plasmonic and photonic devices showed that enhanced optical gain by the Purcell effect, large spontaneous emission factor, and high group index are key elements to efficient plasmonic lasing. The results shed light on the three-dimensional miniaturization of plasmonic lasers.
