Abstract
The detailed room temperature stimulated emission including its optical characteristics from ZnO nanoparticles, which were prepared by a homogenous precipitation method, has been investigated by the time-resolved spectroscopy. The light emission originates from a free exciton recombination at a lower excitation level; the amplified spontaneous emission appears at a moderate excitation level, in which the threshold excitation intensity is 0.65GWcm−2. The resonant stimulated emission was observed in ZnO nanoparticles at a higher excitation intensity. Also, the emission lifetime is drastically reduced. Compared to the fluorescence decay curves, the time-resolved spectrum of the stimulated emission suggests the Gaussian-like decay time with only a few of picoseconds. The dynamic processes of lasing behavior and the characteristics of lasing emission in ZnO nanoparticles could provide the information on the crystal quality, the exciton and the lasing action in the particles.
