Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present application relates to laser emitting devices, method for making the same and use thereof.
- 2. Background of the Invention
- Random laser devices have been known in the art. For example, C. Zacharrakis, “Random lasing following two-photon excitation of highly scattering gain media Applied Physics Letters,” 81, 2511 (2002) discloses the use of a femtosecond pulse laser at the wavelength of 800 nm to two-photon excite Coumarin 307 colloid solution to obtain 480 blue emission. B. Raghavendra Prasad, et al, “Lasing in active, sub-mean-free path-sized systems with dense, random, weak scatterers,” Applied Optics, 36, 7718 (1997), discloses yellow emission by using a frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser to pump colloid solution containing Rhodamine 590 perchlorate and polystyrene micro-spheres. S. John et al, “Theory of lasing in a multiple-scattering medium,” Phys. Rev. A, 54, 3642 (1996), H. Cao, “Lasing with resonant feedback In random media, ” Physica B, 338, 215. (2003) and H. Cao, et al, “Transition from amplified spontaneous emission to laser action in strongly scattering media,” Physical Review E 61, 1985 (2000) have disclosed red emission in colloid solutions.
- The above-mentioned laser devices are in a generally liquid format. A skilled person in the art would appreciate that stimulated emission from polymeric solids is much more attractive in terms of applications, stability and cost. However, up to now, very few workable polymeric systems have been reported. R. M. Balachandran, et al,. “Laser action in polymeric gain media containing scattering particles,” Applied Optics 35, 640 (1996) and Y. Ling, et al. “Investigation of random lasers with resonant feedback,” Physics Review A 64, 063808-1 (2001) disclose red emission in PMMA at a threshold of 15 mJ/cm2.
- However, the relatively high threshold of Balachandran and Ling's laser devices may restrict its applicability.
- Furthermore, laser devices have been used in various applications such as for therapy purposes. For example, laser devices with wavelengths of 532 nm, 690 nm and 755 nm are known for their effect to eliminate or reduce black flecks, and a 585 nm laser can clean the red flecks, Improve the skin properties and prevent aging. Exemplary applications of laser devices have been disclosed in various prior patents or patent publications, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,625,456, entitled “Optical sources having a strongly scattering gain medium providing laser-like action” and issued to Nabil M. Lawandy on Apr. 29,1997; PCT publication no. WO04026586A1, entitled “Random laser image projector system and method” filed by Timothy, J Miller on Sep. 16, 2003; U.S. Pat. No. 6,391,022, entitled “Ultra long pulsed dye laser device for treatment of ectatic vessels and method therefore” and issued to Furumoto et al on May 21, 2002; U.S. Pat. No. 6,551,308, entitled “Laser therapy assembly for muscular tissue revascularization” and issued to Muller et al on Apr. 22, 2003; U.S. Pat. No. 6,126,653, entitled “Laser therapy system and method of cutting and vaporizing a tissue body” and issued to John H. Hajjar on Oct. 3, 2000; U.S. Pat. No. 5,817,089, entitled “Skin treatment process using laser” and issued to Tankovich et al on Oct. 6,1998; US patent publication on. 20020177844, entitled “Medical laser therapy device” and filed by Gerlach et al. on Jan. 10, 2002; U.S. Pat. No. 6,746,473, entitled “Therapeutic laser device” and issued to Shanks et al on Jun. 8, 2004; U.S. Pat. No. 6,312,451, entitled “Low level laser therapy apparatus” and issued to Jackson Streeter on Nov. 6, 2001; EP patent publication no. 1281378A entitled “Laser therapy Apparatus” and filed by Owa et al on Apr. 9, 2001.

FIG. 12 illustrates the textile ofFIG. 10 used as a therapy device. - As discussed in details below, the exemplary laser emitting device embodiments of the present invention can be in the format of laser films, textiles, micro laser clusters or random laser fibers. Each includes three major components, namely, a polymer matrix as the host material (for example PMMA or PVA), gain or amplifying media or materials (for example laser dyes or conjugated polymer), and particles as scatters (for example TiO2 or ZnO, etc). When a wide-banded flash lamp or pulsed laser pumps the gain materials of such laser emitting devices, the laser emitting devices emit monochromatic lasers with high power. By changing the gain materials, laser emission with different wavelength such as 585 nm and 610 nm can be realized. In addition, particles have scattering functions and can enlarge the path photons pass in the medium. The path increase produces Amplified Spontaneous Emission. Ordered particle distribution in the localized field act as a feedback cavity and provide random laser emission. Specifically, particles (scatters) may increase the distance a photon travels in the medium. This may increase the probability that one photon is changed into multiple photons.
- Furthermore, with the increase of pump energy at 532 nm and 8 ns pulse duration, a slope change and unsaturated input occurs in the linear input-output characteristics. By adjusting the output energy and laser dyes, flecks and stains In different depth and with different color can be treated. Therefore, the present invention may have applications in skin photothermolysis therapy.
- Nano-composites Film
- To form an exemplary laser emitting film (not shown) according to an embodiment of the invention, firstly, 2.2 mg Rhodamine 590 or 610 and 2.4 mg TiO2 nano-particles are mixed in 2 ml of dichloromethane until the dye is dissolved completely. Then 2 ml 13 wt % PMMA dichloromethane solution is added to the above mixture. The mixture is sonificated until a homogeneous solution was formed. A PMMA film containing Rhodamin 590 and TiO2 particles can then be formed by cell-casting of 1 ml of the solution.
