Passively Q-switched pulses generation from Erbium-Doped fiber laser using Lutetium Oxide as saturable absorber

In this paper, a configuration of a passively Q-switched Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) using a Lutetium Oxide (Lu2O3) thin film as a saturable absorber (SA) is experimentally implemented to generate high pulse energy with a high signal to noise ratio. A stable Q-switched pulse train is initiated...
