In accordance with photoluminescence (PL) characterization, the emission of rhodamine B was enhanced at the laser pump wavelength, which may open up possibilities for lasers based on dye molecules pumped at different wavelengths.EnglishNanocrystalsEnergy exchangePump lasersLaser excitationPerformance evaluationZinc compoundsPhysics NanotechnologyEnergy resolutionSteady-stateNanotechnologyConference Paper10.1109/LEOS.2008.4688668
