Abstract:
A comparative analysis of the spectral-luminescent characteristics and generation parameters of a number of 3-imidazopyridylcoumarin derivatives has been carried out under nano- and microsecond excitation by coherent and incoherent light. New coumarin dyes are offered that feature the ability to lase under different types of pumping in the spectral range 525–580 nm; high lasing efficiency reaching 20% and 1% under laser and lamp pumping, respectively; and high photochemical stability (3–5 times higher than that of rhodamine 6 G) under conditions of powerful nonmonochromatic pumping.
