Passively Q-switched S-band thulium fluoride fiberlaser with multi-walled carbon nanotube

A stable, passively Q-switched thulium fluoride fiber laser (TFFL) using a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-based saturable absorber (SA) for operation in the S-band region is proposed and demonstrated. The proposed TFFL has a central lasing wavelength of 1486.4 nm and an input power range of 87...
