Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

Too short introduction and abstract. As a result, there are few literary sources. I would suggest expanding the introduction by describing OLEDs, lasers and why you chose these particular calculations.

There is no explanation of the abbreviations (OLED, TSBF, SSA, TTD, TPA and others).

2.1 Explain in detail the structure of the device, maybe the compounds used, the thickness of the layers.

It is difficult to say whether the calculations are accurate, because the indicators are chosen by themselves or from articles.

It is easier to delve into the results when they are in the table. Therefore, I propose to present the results in a table.

There are no conclusions at the end of the work.

Reviewer 3 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

This paper presents a theoretical analysis of organic laser diodes pumped by organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). It introduces a novel approach of integrating electrical injection and laser light generation in a single device to address issues caused by triplet and polariton absorption arising from electrical injection. The article employs a dynamic model to extend the validation of OLEDs under electrical injection to include the laser-pumped organic section. The results indicate a significant reduction in laser threshold compared to direct electrical pumping in this configuration. However, the paper also notes that while the active region is excited by optical pumping, triplet states will still be generated due to intersystem crossing (ISC), with a lifetime permitting pulsed laser operation at a repetition rate of 1 kHz. Additionally, simulations demonstrate the laser's modulation capability for gigabit-level optical communication.This article does indeed provide valuable insights for researchers in the field of OLED-pumped lasers.Therefore,I recommend that the paper be published after appropriate revisions:

1. The reviewer recommends making the data graphs in the article more visually appealing, for instance, by enclosing the graphs. 2. The reviewer recommends adding a suitable section to elaborate on how this theoretical simulation translates into the expected effects in practical experimental verification. 3. The value of 0.4V for the barrier voltage (Poole-Frenkl) in Table 1 maybe explain to go a step further.
