Zirconium pentatelluride as saturable absorber for 2 μm ultrafast solid-state laser

Abstract

High-quality 2 µm ultrafast laser is successfully developed using a zirconium pentatelluride saturable absorber mirror (ZrTe5-SAM) composed of a layered structure of ZrTe5. Continuous wave mode-locked (CWML) operation has been...

InSb-based saturable absorbers for ultrafast photonic applications

“…[11][12][13][14] In particular, SA devices based on 2D materials for pulsed fiber lasers have been extensively investigated. [15][16][17][18] To date, 2D SA materials include transition metal dichalcogenides, MXenes, single-element 2D materials, topological insulators, perovskites, and other divergent 2D materials. [19][20][21][22][23][24] Remarkable development has been achieved in pulsed lasers with 2D SAs.…”
