“…So the temperature of the ST process can be elevated much higher than that of the HT process due to the use of many high-boiling point organic solvents. The HT/ST method has been applied for synthesis of lots of nanostructures, such as metal, 183 metal oxide, 184 metal chalcogenide, 185 2D TI, 186 TMDC, 187 and MXene 188 nanomaterials. Experimental parameters such as the temperature, reaction time, solution pH value, kind and concentration of chemicals, and additives have influences on the HT/ST synthesis of nanostructures.…”

“…353 In addition, Cu 2 S 354 and CuS 355 nanocrystals were also used as the SAs for generation of laser pulses in passively mode-locked fiber lasers. Other metal chalcogenide nanomaterials and their composites such as PbS, 356 PbSe, 357 PbTe, 230 CdSe, 358 ZnS, 359 ZnSe, 185 PbS/CdS, 360 and SnS/CdS 361 nanostructured materials were also used as the SA materials for applications in passively mode-locked pulsed fiber lasers in recent years. Up to now, by using metal chalcogenide nanostructured materials as the SA, the wavelength of the obtained pulsed laser in passively mode-locked fiber lasers spans from NIR to MIR region (from ∼1 μm 283 to ∼2 μm 362 ).…”

“…[ 167 ] The tapered fiber induces strong evanescent field around its waist region, allowing for the interaction with an absorptive materials accompanied with rapid heat dissipation. [ 168,169 ] The limitation of the tapered fiber is its fragility as the tapered region of a tapered fiber could be easily tapered down to sub‐μm sizes. The MXene material could be integrated on the tapered fiber platform with several methods.…”

Being a new class of two dimensional (2D) metal carbides, borides, and nitrides, MXenes comprise one of the largest families of 2D nanomaterials that provide huge possibilities in photonics, electronics, and energy, Particularly, MXenes are discovered recently as alternatives to conventional saturable absorbers (SAs), such as carbon nanotube and graphene, which are used for short laser pulse generation. The high saturable absorption, astounding modulation depth, flexible bandgap tunability, and high electron density near Fermi level are the main features that make MXenes excellent candidate materials for SAs. Herein, this review summarizes the recent development on synthesis and characterization of the MXene, with focus on the nonlinear saturable absorption and the application of the MXene SA in mode‐locked fiber lasers. The emerging issues and challenges associated with MXene based SAs, as well as future perspectives of the reviewed topic are also discussed.

“…The results show that HfS 2 presents highly nonlinear optical absorption to achieve shorter pulses with higher power and lower mode-locking threshold, which opens up a new direction for the application of TMDs in ultrafast photonics. In addition, nanomaterials including MXenes [13, 296-298], Plasmonic [141, 142, 299-303], Halide Perovskites [304][305][306][307] and others [134, [308][309][310][311][312][313][314][315][316][317][318] have also recently been applied in mode-locked fiber lasers working at 1.5μm.…”

Compared with continuous wave lasers, ultrafast lasers have the advantages of ultra-short pulse width and ultra-high peak power, and have significant applications in optical communications, medical diagnostics, and precision machining. Saturable absorber (SA) technology is the most effective technique for the generation of ultra-fast lasers, which are based on artificial SAs and natural SAs. Among them, the semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) has become the most commonly used form at present. Recently, basic research and application of nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene have been developed rapidly. Researchers have found that nanomaterials exhibit extraordinary characteristics in ultrafast photonics, such as the low saturation intensity of CNTs, zero-band gap of graphene, and extremely high modulation depth of the topological insulator (TI) nano-films. Since graphene was first reported as an SA in 2009, many other nanomaterials have been successively explored, resulting in the rapid development of novel nanomaterial-based SAs. In this paper, we classified the nanomaterials used in SA mode-locking technology at 1.5 μm and reviewed their research progress with a particular focus on nonlinear optical properties, integration strategies, and applications in the field of ultrafast photonics
