“…The shortest pulse duration (< 130 fs) for this type of SA in 1.5 μm region was demonstrated in [10]. The energy of pulses reached 45 pJ and was significantly increased up to 0.21 nJ with preserving short pulse duration (< 170 fs) in the following work [11]. One should also mention another work [12], in which the authors used all-fiber cavity with nonlinear polarization evolution (NPE) mode-locking to provide 111 fs pulses with the same energy level (∼ 0.2 nJ).…”

Abstract-The all-fiber highly-chirped dissipative soliton (HCDS) oscillator was realised at 1.5 μm wavelength. A normal net cavity dispersion was achieved by using a conventional dispersion compensating fiber (DCF). To separate effects of the amplitude self-modulation and dissipative soliton formation, we exploit in the laser cavity both standard single mode fiber and polarization maintaining single mode fiber. The properties of the generated pulses have been varied by changing spectral filter bandwidth and DCF lengths. After compression of the nJ-level ∼6 ps HCDS in the external fiber compressor, we measured the output pulse duration of 165 fs (an estimated chirp parameter 40).

“…[60][61] In the laser cavity, these SAs are usually pasted on fiber ferrules, or embedded in the air channels of photonic crystal fiber (PCF), 30,36,67,77,108,[119][120][121][122][123][124] or deposited on microfiber or side polished fiber (SPF). 56,58,59 The fiber ferrule-type SAs have inherently short nonlinear interaction length.…”

“…56,58 CVD offers a scalable method for the production of monolayer or few-layer TMD (i.e., MoS 2 or WS 2 ), but the film growth is limited by the low nucleation rate on bare substrates, and pretreatment of the substrate is often necessary to seed the TMD growth. The PLD and MST can produce the film by irradiating the target placed under vacuum chamber, and the film can be directly deposited on the substrate (i.e., quartz glass substrate, 85 microfiber, 63 SPF, 61 or fiber-tip 80 ). In this paper, we propose two schemes for achieving new WS 2 -based SA and SAM devices as shown in Fig.…”

, "Fiber-integrated tungsten disulfide saturable absorber (mirror) for pulsed fiber lasers," Opt. Eng. 55 (8) Abstract. We propose two schemes for achieving tungsten disulfide (WS 2 )-based saturable absorber (SA) and saturable absorber mirror (SAM). By utilizing the pulsed laser deposition method, we grow the WS 2 film on microfiber to form an evanescent field interaction SA device. Incorporating this SA device into a common ring-cavity erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser, stably passive mode-locking can be achieved with pulse duration of 395 fs and signal-to-noise ratio of 64 dB. We also produce a fiber tip integrated WS 2 -SAM by utilizing the magnetron sputtering technique (MST). This new type of SAM combines the WS 2 layer as SA and gold mirror as high reflective mirror. By employing the WS 2 -SAM, we construct the linear-cavity EDF lasers, and achieve passive mode-locking operation with pulse duration of ∼1 ns and SNR of ∼61 dB. We further achieve stably passive Q-switching operation with pulse duration of ∼160 ns and pulse energy of 54.4 nJ. These fiber-integrated SAs and SAMs have merits of compactness and reliability, paving the way for the development of new photonic devices such as SAs for pulsed laser technology.

Topological insulators are innovative materials with semiconducting bulk together with surface states forming a Dirac cone, which ensure metallic conduction in the surface plane. Therefore, topological insulators represent an ideal platform for optoelectronics and photonics. The recent progress of science and technology based on topological insulators enables the exploitation of their huge application capabilities. Here, we review the recent achievements of optoelectronics, photonics and plasmonics with topological insulators. Plasmonic devices and photodetectors based on topological insulators in a wide energy range, from Terahertz to the ultraviolet, promise outstanding impact. Furthermore, the peculiarities, the range of applications and the challenges of the emerging fields of topological photonics and thermoplasmonics are discussed.
