The saturable absorber device based on the MAX phase titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2) deposited onto D-shaped fiber has successfully activated a pulsed laser at a center wavelength of 1557 nm. The elemental composition and vibrational modes of the saturable absorber were analyzed using energy-dis...
