“…It is equally pertinent to note that essential properties of CNT themselves may also be affected by oxidation in air [18,19] or elevated temperatures [20]. In order to avoid such modification, free-standing CNT films must be isolated from air (for instance, by placing them inside a sealed fibre connector, between whose ferrules a free-standing CNT film is clamped) and used in conditions ensuring that the laser radiation absorbed within the CMT film does not result in excessive heating of the film.…”

This work for the first time reports the results on study of a polymer-free carbon nanotube (CNT) films used as a saturable absorber in an all-fibre laser. It is demonstrated that free-standing single-walled CNT films fabricated by an aerosol method are able to ensure generation of transform-limited pulses in an Er all-fibre ring laser with duration of several picoseconds and high quality of mode locking. The optimal average output power levels are identified, amounting to 0.4-0.5 mW depending on the linear transmission of the studied samples (60% or 80%). Application of polymer-free CNT films solves problems related to degradation of conventional polymer matrices of CNT-based saturable absorbers and paves the way to longer-lasting and more reliable saturable absorbers compatible with all-fibre laser configurations.

“…The work function of the pristine SWCNTs as previously measured by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy technique has been obtained to be [103]. In principle, the position in SWCNTs in air laboratory conditions can be shifted up to [106,107] due to the ambient doping by oxygen. However, the annealing of the SWCNT film allowed us to recover the to its intrinsic position.…”

“…To reveal the densification effect on the optoelectronic performance of the films, As for the temperature effect on doping, it is worth noting that after the dropcasting on SWCNT films, the complete evaporation of the solvent (the solution droplet size was ) with HAuCl4 dissolved might take from a second to the whole day for various solvents. [86][87][88][89][90][91]96] and satisfies most of the requirements for device TCFs [18,20,35,[86][87][88][89][90][91][96][97][98][99][100]. To improve the mentioned stability issue, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and related polymers can be used to cover and protect doped SWCNTs from the environment [94].…”

“…As a result, the tip-sample contact area sharply increased due to side contacts of the tip with surrounding CNTs, leading an augmented adhesion force (e.g. For all the studied materials, the normalized adhesion force (adhesion force density) in the inert Ar atmosphere was higher than in ambient air, which can be explained by the difference in the ambient humidity and its influence on SWCNTs as shown by Shandakov et al [84]. RH can affect adhesive properties, especially at the nanoscale, due to the formation of a capillary bridge when RH exceeds a threshold value of roughly 25% [85][86][87].…”
