Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using chemical reduction techniques for Q-switcher at 1.5 µm region

This research investigated the generation of passively Q-switched erbium (Er)-doped fibre laser using silver nanoparticles/poly (vinyl alcohol) (Ag/PVA) as a saturable absorber (SA). The Ag nanoparticles were synthesised via the chemical reduction technique. The Ag/PVA film based SA was fabricated b...
