Effect of gold-nanoparticle size on microfiber saturable absorber for mode-locked erbium-doped fiber lasers
Effect of gold-nanoparticle size on microfiber saturable absorber for mode-locked erbium-doped fiber lasers The optical performance of passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser incorporating gold-nanoparticles (Au-NPs) of different sizes as saturable absorbers (SAs) was compared. A composite of...
