Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adom201400083-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Room temperature optically pumped lasing</bold> is achieved for a new n‐type molecular crystal of 2, 5‐bis(4′‐cyanobiphenyl‐4‐yl)­thiophene (BP1T‐CN). Efficient stimulated emission in the Fabry–Pérot crystal cavity is supported with a high group refractive index (4.18–4.98), <italic>Q</italic> factor (910–1860), material gain coefficient (120 cm^‐1), and a high stimulated emission rate demonstrated by pump–probe measurements. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pghmfn1cqx" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
