Optically pumped lasing of ZnO at room temperature

Abstract

We report the observation of optically pumped lasing in ZnO at room temperature. Thin films of ZnO were grown by plasma-enhanced molecular beam epitaxy on (0001) sapphire substrates. Laser cavities formed by cleaving were found to lase at a threshold excitation intensity of 240 kW cm−2. We believe these results demonstrate the high quality of ZnO epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy while clearly demonstrating the viability of ZnO based light emitting devices.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
