The passive generation of Q-switched pulses in an erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser using a Ti3C2Tx MXene based saturable absorber (SA) was demonstrated. The SA was formed using Ti3AlC2 MAX phase as a precursor for Ti3C2Tx MXene which was obtained by etching Ti3AlC2 using a mixture of lithium fluoride...
