Mode-locking pulse generation with MoS2 -PVA saturable absorber in both anomalous and ultra-long normal dispersion regimes

We experimentally demonstrate a stable and simple mode locked erbium doped fiber laser (EDFL) utilizing passive few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) as a saturable absorber. The MoS2 is obtained by liquid phase exfoliation before it is embedded in a polymer composite film and then inserted in the...
