1500-nm Q-switched fibre laser with carbon nanotubes

A Q-switched fibre laser operating at 1500 nm is proposed and demonstrated. The laser uses a saturable absorber (SA) based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to generate Q-switched pulses, while a 30-m-long depressed-cladding erbium-doped fibre (DC-EDF) provides the necessary gain in the desired wavelength...
