Article Abstract

We demonstrated a passively Q-switched solid-state Tm:YAG laser using topological insulator (TI) BiTe as the saturable absorber (SA) for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The Q-switched laser pulses were obtained with the minimum pulse width of 382 ns, the maximum pulse energy of 4.8 μJ, the maximum average output power of 272 mW, and a pulse repetition rate of 57.67 kHz. The results indicate that BiTe can be a promising kind of saturable absorber in the 2 μm wavelength region.

An intelligent controlled spatiotemporal mode-locked (STML) fiber laser based on a photonic lantern (PL) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. A pair of in-house developed PLs is spliced into the cavity in a back-to-back structure. This PL-based structure functions as a mode multiplexer/demultiplexer to generate higher-order spatial modes.

Background: 5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), the first-line therapy for ulcerative colitis, is a poorly soluble zwitterionic drug. Unformulated 5-ASA is thought to be extensively absorbed in the small intestine.

Methods: The pH-dependent solubility of 5-ASA in vitro and the intestinal membrane distribution of 5-ASA and its N-acetyl metabolite (AC-5-ASA) after the oral administration of 5-ASA were examined in fed rats.

Janus transition metal disulfide (TMD) monolayers have two distinct carbon surfaces that break the inherent ground external mirror symmetry. When compared to traditional TMD materials, Janus TMDs not only inherit the advantages of traditional TMDs but also have new characteristics that are different from those of traditional TMDs. This paper describes the development of a stable passive Q-switched ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL) with operating wavelengths of 1032.

Palladium Nanocubes as Saturable Absorbers for Mode-Locked Laser Generation at 1.56 μm.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

College of Information Science and Engineering, Northeastern University, Shenyang 110819, China.

Palladium (Pd) nanocubes, a type of metallic nanostructure, have demonstrated remarkable optoelectronic properties, garnering significant attention. However, their nonlinear optical characteristics and related device applications remain underexplored. In this study, we report the fabrication of a novel saturable absorber (SA) by depositing Pd nanocubes onto a D-shaped fiber (DF).
