Linearly polarized, Q-switched Er-doped fiber laser based on reduced graphene oxide saturable absorber (1212.0201v1)
Published 2 Dec 2012 in physics.optics and cond-mat.mtrl-sci
Abstract: We demonstrate generation of linearly polarized pulses from a passively Q-switched Erbium-doped fiber laser. The cavity was designed using only polarization maintaining (PM) fibers and components, resulting in linearly polarized output beam with degree of polarization (DOP) at the level of 97.6%. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was used as a saturable absorber for Q-switched operation. The laser was capable of delivering 1.85us pulses with 125nJ pulse energy at 115kHz repetition rate.
