Abstract :
We have designed a promising optofluidic laser device based on a microfluidic structured channel filled with an ethanolic dye solution. We report random laser emission attributed to the inherent randomness of the structure. The systematic study of the emission dependence on various pump laser parameters reveals fundamental aspects as well as potential applications of this system.
