  We present a new class of micro lasers based on nanoporous molecular sieve
host-guest systems. Organic dye guest molecules of
1-Ethyl-4-(4-(p-Dimethylaminophenyl)-1,3-butadienyl)-pyridinium Perchlorat were
inserted into the 0.73-nm-wide channel pores of a zeolite AlPO$_4$-5 host. The
zeolitic micro crystal compounds where hydrothermally synthesized according to
a particular host-guest chemical process. The dye molecules are found not only
to be aligned along the host channel axis, but to be oriented as well. Single
mode laser emission at 687 nm was obtained from a whispering gallery mode
oscillating in a 8-$\mu$m-diameter monolithic micro resonator, in which the
field is confined by total internal reflection at the natural hexagonal
boundaries inside the zeolitic microcrystals.
