Q-switched erbium-doped fiber lasers with ITO thin film saturable absorbers: A comprehensive cavity configuration study
This study presents the utilization of an indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film as a saturable absorber (SA) in various cavity configurations to illustrate a Q-switched erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL). The system is designed in three distinct configurations, including linear, single-ring, and Figure-8 ca...
