TL;DR: The design, synthesis and characterization of new tailor-made BODIPY dyes with efficient absorption and emission in the blue spectral region are reported, with unexpectedly high lasing efficiencies and high photostabilities, outperforming the laser action of other dyes considered as benchmarks in the same spectral region.

TL;DR: In this article, Forster resonance energy transfer between two different dyes makes it possible to realize an efficient and stable laser for applications in biophotonics, and the authors show that the transfer of energy between two dyes improves the stability of the laser.

TL;DR: The new long-wavelength BODIPY dyes have been efficiently synthesized and exhibit highly efficient and stable laser emission tunable from the green to NIR spectral region (570-725 nm), which assure the potential of these dyes for biophotonic applications.

TL;DR: Highly emitting 8-propargylaminoBODIPY (8-PAB) 2 was prepared in 94% yield and displays efficient emission in the blue region of the visible spectrum with a fluorescence quantum yield up to 0.94 and high laser efficiency at 483 nm.

TL;DR: Rhodamine 6G has been dissolved in copolymers of 2-HEMA and Methyl MethAcrylate (MMA) and the resulting solid-state solutions have been pumped at 337 nm and 532 nm.
