The rise in output power from rare-earth-doped fiber sources over the past decade, via the
use of cladding-pumped fiber architectures, has been dramatic, leading to a range of fiber …

The mid-infrared fiber lasers in the 2–3.5 μm spectral regions have been extensively applied
in many application fields, such as biomedicine, telecommunications, military and nonlinear …

In this paper, we report 4 different saturable absorbers based on 4 transition metal
dichalcogenides (MoS_2, MoSe_2, WS_2, WSe_2) and utilize them to Q-switch a ring-cavity …

As a kind of novel allotrope of carbon, graphdiyne (GDY) has attracted wide interest of
