Q-switched thulium-doped fiber laser operating at 1920 nm region with multiwalled carbon nanotubes embedded in polyvinyl alcohol

We demonstrate a Q-switched Thulium-doped fiber laser operating at approximately 1912 nm region using multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) embedded in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the passive saturable absorber (SA). The SA is fabricated by mixing the dispersed MWCNTs suspension into a PVA solution MW...
