主 题:Q switching continuous tunability Fe^(2+):ZnSe InAs ZrF_(4)fiber
摘 要:In this Letter,we report on widely tunable pulse generation from a red-diode-clad-pumped mid-infrared[mid-IR)Er^(3+)/Dy^(3+)codoped ZrF_(4)fiber laser,for the first time,to the best of our *** a Fe^(2+):ZnSe crystal,continuously tunable Qswitched pulses across the range of 3.06–3.62μm have been attained,which not only represents the widest range[in wavelength domain)from a pulsed rare-earth-doped fiber laser at any wavelength,but also almost entirely covers the strong absorption band of C-H bonds in the mid-IR,providing a potential way for gas detection and polymer *** addition,the commercial InAs quantum-well-based saturable absorbers[SAs)have been employed instead,and the obtained longest Q-switching wavelength of 3.39μm is slightly shorter than 3.444μm determined by its nominal direct bandgap of 0.36 eV.
