MOF‐Based Organic Microlasers

Abstract

Abstract Organic lasers have become an important research and application target for the development of optoelectronics and future photonics due to their ease of preparation and miniaturization, low threshold, and wideband tunability, as well as large optical and nonlinear optical cross sections. Recently, the metal–organic framework (MOF) based organic microlasers have received increasing research attention because they not only achieve high gain concentrations while minimizing the common aggregation‐caused quenching effect of organic luminescence systems, but also can optimize and even control the output performance of the laser by manipulating the interaction between the framework and the gain molecules. In this review, the latest advances in MOF‐based organic lasers are explored and insights into future trends are given, providing useful guidance for the design and preparation of new‐type lasers.
