Tunable Q-switched ytterbium-doped fibre laser with Nickel Oxide saturable absorber

A passively Q-switched ytterbium-doped fibre laser (YDFL) using a nickel oxide-based saturable absorber is proposed and demonstrated. The Q-switched YDFL is capable of generating a stable output with a minimum pulse width of 6.9 mu s and maximum repetition rate of 57.01 kHz. The generated pulses are...
