Graphdiyne for Ultrashort Pulse Generation in an Erbium-Doped Hybrid Mode-Locked Fiber Laser
An erbium-doped hybrid passively mode-locked fiber laser based on few-layer graphdiyne (GDY) saturable absorber (SA) has been investigated for the first time. Hybrid mode-locked fiber laser is composed of non-linear polarization rotation (NPR) technology

Highly stable MXene (V2CTx)-based harmonic pulse generation
MXene as a novel two-dimensional (2D) material exhibits a lot of advantages in nonlinear optics. However, the common MXene, Ti3C2Tx and Ti2CTx nanosheets, easily suffer from degradation under ambient conditions, greatly limiting their practical ...

Triple-wavelength fiber ring laser based on a hybrid gain medium actively mode-locked at 10 GHz [PDF]
A fiber ring laser based on a hybrid gain medium that produces three simultaneously mode-locked wavelength channels is presented. The lithium niobate based modulator used to actively mode-lock the laser cavity at 10 GHz is birefringence compensated to ...

Short pulse generation with 40 GHz passively-mode locked Q-dashed Fabry-Pérot laser [PDF]
Generation of sub-picosecond pulses by a DC-biased passively mode-locked Fabry-Perot laser is demonstrated. By using a tunable band-pass filter, it is observed that the width of the generated pulses decreases in direct proportion to the optical modes ...

860 femtoseconds mode-locked fiber laser by Gallium co-doped erbium fiber (Ga-EDF)
We proposed and demonstrated a high power mode-locked fiber laser using a new type of gain medium which is called as Erbium Gallium co-doped fiber (Ga-EDF). The mode-locking mechanism is enabled by a graphene-based saturable absorber, which is fabricated
