Mode-locked fiber laser with MoSe2 saturable absorber based on evanescent field

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/28/1/014207

Abstract

An all-fiber mode-locked fiber laser was achieved with a saturable absorber based on a tapered fiber deposited with layered molybdenum selenide (MoSe₂). The laser was operated at a central wavelength of 1558.35 nm with an output spectral width of 2.9 nm, and a pulse repetition rate of 16.33 MHz. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on mode-locked fiber lasers using MoSe₂ saturable absorbers based on tapered fibers.

Keywords: fiber lasers mode locking molybdenum diselenide
