Gold Nanocages as Saturable Absorbers for Passively Q-Switched Nd:YVO<sub>4</sub> Lasers with Optimized Performance
Based on a gold nanocage saturable absorber (GNC-SA) with the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption peak located at 1.06 μm, passively Q-switched Nd:YVO<sub>4</sub> lasers with a center wavelength of 1064.1 nm were demonstrated. Q-switched pulses with the shortest pulse duration of...
