Tunable Gold Nanorods Q-Switcher for Pulsed Er-Doped Fiber Laser
We prepared the gold nanorods (GNRs) via seed-mediated growth method, and fabricated the fiber-compatible saturable absorption device with it. We found that the nonlinear absorption behavior of the fiber-compatible GNRs saturable absorber can be tuned by introducing an external modulation laser. Wit...
