Short-pulsed passively Q-switched ∼2.8 μm bulk laser based on VS2/tellurene composite saturable absorber
The assembly of two-dimensional materials can provide a strategy for integrating their superior properties. In this work, the petal-shaped VS2 self-assembly was synthesized via a solvothermal process and the VS2/tellurene (VS2/Te) composite saturable absorber mirror (SAM) was prepared by using the liquid-phase exfoliation technique. The open-aperture Z-scan measurements revealed that the VS2/Te composite SAM exhibits a modulation depth of ∼5.6 % and a total unsaturated loss of ∼2.4 % at 2.8 μm, highlighting its excellent saturable absorption performance. With this as-prepared SAM, short-pulse passively Q-switched Er:YAP laser operation around 2.8 μm was realized. Under an absorbed pump power of 8.1 W, the minimum pulse width of 160.2 ns with a repetition rate of 194.6 kHz and average output power of 0.65 W was achieved. These results show the outstanding performance of the VS2/Te composite film as an optical switching device at 2.8 μm, enabling the generation of short-pulse lasers in the mid-infrared region.
期刊介绍:
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
