Yb- and Er-doped fiber laser Q-switched with an optically uniform, broadband WS2 saturable absorber
We demonstrate a ytterbium (Yb) and an erbium (Er)-doped fiber laser Q-switched by a solution processed, optically uniform, few-layer tungsten disulfide saturable absorber (WS 2 -SA). Nonlinear optical absorption of the WS 2 -SA in the sub-bandgap region, attributed to the edge-induced states, is ch...
