High-energy Q-switched ytterbium-doped all-fiber laser with tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum as saturable absorber
We have experimentally demonstrated a Q-switched fiber laser operating in the 1 μm region by using tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) as a saturable absorber (SA). The Alq3 was fabricated through a drop-casting technique, where the material was embedded into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film so...
