  100 mW deep-ultraviolet emission from aluminium-nitride-based quantum wells pumped by an electron beam

  Researchers demonstrate the generation of deep-ultraviolet light of wavelength ∼240 nm from Al_xGa_1−xN/AlN quantum wells by electron beam irradiation, with an output power of 100 mW and an efficiency of ∼40%. This record-breaking power is attributed to the high crystalline quality of the quantum wells and the proper well design for electron beam pumping.

  Room-temperature polariton lasing in an organic single-crystal microcavity

  Polaritons in organic semiconductors are highly stable at room temperature, but so far nonlinear emission from these structures has not been demonstrated. Here, polariton lasing at room temperature in an organic microcavity composed of a melt-grown anthracene single crystal sandwiched between two dielectric mirrors is reported.
