Evanescent-Light Deposition of Graphene Onto Tapered Fibers for Passive Q-Switch and Mode-Locker
We demonstrate the fabrication of graphene-deposited tapered fibers (GDTFs), which can be used as saturable absorbers (SAs) for pulsed lasers. The advantages of GDTF SAs include flexibility, all-fiber configuration, and high optical damage threshold. The fabrication process is based on the interacti...
