Abstract :
Nanoporous materials in the form of molecular sieves are used to host various laser active guest centers, such as organic dyes and rare earth ions. For the enclosed centers the nanoporous host constitutes an environment with unique quality. We discuss the general optical character of those materials, as well as the properties of the resulting microlasers.
