“…Various operation regimes, including Q-switching [52,53,[66][67][68][69][70][71], Q-switched mode-locking [72], and mode-locking [9,37,50,[73][74][75][76], were reported. Pulse evolution and interaction dynamics, including various soliton types [9,37,55,[77][78][79], soliton molecule [74,80,81], harmonic mode-locking [58,75,82], vector solitons [83,84], dark soliton [85], and soliton rains [86,87], were observed based on SWCNT-SAs and MWCNT-SAs. Due to the technical advantages of high beam quality, high efficiency, high integration, high reliability, etc., of fiber lasers, in this section, we mainly focus on the CNT-SA-based ultrafast fiber lasers.…”
