Abstract

In this paper, we study the wavelength tunable properties for distributed-feedback lasing from 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) dye-doped holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal grating. By preparing and pumping the DCM-doped HPDLC gratings with various grating spacings, we depict the tuning curve of the distributed-feedback lasing and confirm that only in a range from 574 nm to 685 nm, the lasing action can be observed. Then, we adjust the temperature of the sample and measure the lasing spectrum from the DCM-doped holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal grating with a grating period of 610nm. There is an obvious 4.9 nm blueshift from 627.9 nm to 623 nm for the lasing wavelength with the temperature increasing from 20℃ to 65℃.
