Graphene Fibers: Manipulation of Nonlinear Optical Properties of Graphene Bonded Fiber Devices by Thermally Engineering Fermi–Dirac Distribution (Advanced Optical Materials 21/2017)

Abstract

Electrical current manipulation of linear and nonlinear optical properties is achieved by Fei Xu, Cheng‐bo Mou, Yan‐qing Lu, and co‐workers in article number https://doi.org/10.1002/adom.201700630 based on a graphene‐fiber‐integrated platform by directly bonding a few layers of graphene onto a fiber facet. Its application includes an actively tunable mode‐locked fiber laser with effective manipulation of the operation‐state (mode‐locked or continuous‐wave) and pulse width.
