We report on large energy pulse generation in an erbium-doped fiber laser passively mode-locked with atomic layer graphene. Stable mode locked pulses with single pulse energy up to 7.3 nJ and pulse width of 415 fs have been directly generated from the laser. Our results show that atomic layer graphene could be a promising saturable absorber for large energy mode locking.
我们报道了采用原子层石墨烯被动锁模的掺铒光纤激光器中产生的大能量脉冲。该激光器直接产生了单脉冲能量高达7.3 nJ且脉冲宽度为415 fs的稳定锁模脉冲。我们的结果表明,原子层石墨烯可能是一种用于大能量锁模的有前景的可饱和吸收体。
