In this research work, molybdenum gallium carbide (Mo2Ga2C)-fabricated as a thin film via solution casting technique-was first introduced as a saturable absorber (SA) to regulate the intracavity losses in a Q-switched fibre laser. The fabricated Mo2Ga2C SA had undergone both optical and physical int...
