This chapter is an integrated overview of organic solid-state tunable laser oscillators that adds an additional and complimentary perspective to the material covered in chapters 5 to 9. Emphases are on miniaturized tunable organic lasers using DFB, VECSOL, and waveguide architectures. Furthermore, the use of dye-doped transparent wood, as an all-organic solid-state gain medium, is described and discussed.
