A pulsed laser diode side-pumped long neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet rod (φ3×65 mm) is used as the gain medium. Large pulse energy up to 3.15 mJ and peak power up to 346 kW are generated at the repetition rate of 550 Hz, corresponding to the beam quality factors of Mx^2=3.849, My^2=3.868. Monolayer MoSe2 nanosheets applied in the experiment would be a promising SA for a passive Q-switching operation.展开更多

The cooperation of a photonic crystal fiber and a polari- zation-dependent isolator induces unstable multi-wavelength oscillations based on the nonlinear polarization rotation effect. A MoSe2 thin film is further incorporated into the cavity to achieve a stable multi-wavelength. The laser generates 7 lasings with a constant spacing of 0.47 nm at a pump power of 250 roW. The nmlti- wavelength erbium-doped fiber laser is stable with power fluctuations of less than 5 dB over 30 min.展开更多
