Q-switched Zr-EDF laser using single-walled CNT/PEO polymer composite as a saturable absorber
In this work, we propose and demonstrate a compact, Zirconia–Erbium Doped Fiber (Zr-EDF), a new type of fiber with zirconia dopants added to the silica glass host to significantly increase erbium ion concentrations in the glass matrix. Q-switched behavior is obtained by using a Single-Walled Carbon...
