Abstract
  • Controlling the flow of energy in a random medium is a research frontier with a wide range of applications. As recently demonstrated, the effect of disorder on the transmission of optical beams may be partially compensated by wavefront shaping, but losing control over individual light paths. Here we demonstrate a novel physical effect whereby energy is spatially and spectrally transferred inside a disordered active medium by the coupling between individual lasing modes. We show that it is possible to transmit an optical resonance to a remote point by employing specific control over optical excitations, obtaining a random lasing system, which acts both as a switch and as an amplifier.
