title: DFB laser action in a flexible fully plastic multilayer.
abstract: An all-plastic distributed-feedback flexible multilayer laser (FML), able to keep its lasing characteristics even upon strong bending from planarity, is proposed and the possibility of using this system to make solid-state dye lasers is suggested.
