We evaluated emission behaviors of crystallized films of 1,4-bis(5-phenylthiophene-2-yl)benzene (AC5) in detail which was a representative thiophene/phenylene co-oligomer. The crystallized AC5 films were prepared by vapor deposition onto a substrate and thermal treatment. The AC5 films consisted of a crystalline domain with the size of several tens of micrometers. We used femtosecond laser pulses for the excitation of the AC5 films. As a result, the femtosecond laser pulses did not induce re-absorption above excitation energy densities of their laser threshold. The obtained gain value for AC5 crystallized film was large, over 150 cm-1. Furthermore, the emission cross section of the crystallized AC5 film was nearly 10-16 cm2.

We applied the femtosecond laser-assisted etching technique, that is, irradiation of focused femtosecond laser pulses followed by selective chemical etching, to volume removal inside sapphire. At room temperature, volume etching only slightly advanced while residue remained inside the volume. By increasing the etching temperature, complete volume etching without residue was achieved. Complete etching was, however, accompanied by undesirable phenomena of surface pits or cracks, which are expected to be excluded through further improvement of processing.
