Popis: In order to enhance the laser performances, solid-state samples based on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) co-doped with pyrromethene 597 (PM597) and pyrromethene 650 (PM650) were prepared. With SHG of Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (532 nm, ∼15 ns) pumping the samples, laser emission from the mixtures of PM597 and PM650 both in liquid solution and incorporated into solid polymeric matrices were investigated. The highest slope efficiency of co-doped solid-state dye samples 30.8% was achieved. Through the dye PM650 being co-doped into the dye PM597, the dye laser output wavelength was extended for the existence of energy transfer from the dye PM597 to the dye PM650.
