This study successfully demonstrates a passively wavelength tunable 2.8 μm erbium-doped fiber laser, with Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a saturable absorber, achieving stable Q-switched pulses within a tunable range.
Featured Application Spectroscopic, sensing, material processing, and laser surgery. We experimentally demonstrate a passively Q-switched wavelength tunable 2.8 mu m erbium-doped fiber laser. Fe3O4 nanoparticles deposited on a gold mirror are used as a saturable absorber (SA). Stable Q-switched pulses within the tunable range of 2710-2810 nm are obtained. At the wavelength of 2760 nm, a maximum Q-switched output power of 188 mW is achieved with a repetition rate of 115.8 kHz and a pulse width of 1.3 mu s. The corresponding pulse energy is 1.68 mu J. This demonstration shows the ability of Fe3O4 to function as a broadband mid-infrared SA.
