Watt-level high-power passively Q-switched laser based on a black phosphorus solution saturable absorber

Abstract: A novel black phosphorus (BP) solution saturable absorber (SA) is fabricated by the liquid-phase-exfoliated method and successfully used for passively Q-switched (QS) Nd:YVO 4 laser. Compared with a traditional solid SA, a BP solution SA possesses more excellent optical transparency and higher damage resistance. The shortest pulse duration and highest average output power are measured to be 119 ns and 1.23 W, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, both of them are the best results among QS solid-state las… Show more

“…However, the complicated fabrication process of the SAs such as SESAMs (semiconductor saturable absorber mirror) still results in high cost [3,4]. Even though a series of new materials have excellent properties of saturable absorption, such as graphene [5][6][7], carbon nanotube [8], topological insulators [9][10][11], transition metal dichalcogenides [12][13][14], black phosphorus [15][16][17], and gold nanorods [18], their practical characteristics need more time to verify.…”

“…Few-layer materials are of great importance to researches and applications due to their unique optical and electronic characteristics. Current researches on few-layer materials are principally focused on graphene, insulating hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), topological insulators (TIs), black phosphorus (BP), and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Among these materials, TMDs are a large family, which exhibits a variety of photo-electric properties and offers a wide range of applications in broad research fields [5,6].…”

“…The use of gaphene as the 2D nanomaterial SA to realize pulse output in a laser, provides a new idea for researchers [7]. Other nanomaterials being used as saturated absorbers then emerged in quick succession: carbon nanotube, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), topological insulators (TI), black phosphorus (BP), transition metal oxides (TMOs) and others [8][9][10][11][12].…”
