Two-photon pumped (TPP) frequency-upconverted lasing properties of a partially cross-linked fluorescent polymer are reported. This lasing medium is a cross-linked homogeneous copolymer with tw o major compounds: the chromophore, 4-[bis (2-hydroxyethyl) amino]-N-methylstilbazolium iodide, and the monomer, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate. The spectral, temporal, and spatial structures as well as the output/input characteristics of the TPP cavity lasing were measured using a 13 mm long polymer rod. The net conversion efficiency from the absorbed 1064 nm pump pulse energy to the similar to 606 nm upconverted cavity lasing energy was found to be similar to 4%.
