Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are successfully applied in fiber lasers for their photoelectric properties. However, in previous work, how to improve the modulation depth of TMD-based saturable absorbers (SAs) has been a challenging issue. In this paper, WSe2 and MoSe2 SAs are fabricated with the chemical vapor deposition method. Compared with previous experiments, the modulation depths of WSe2 and MoSe2 SAs with sandwiched structures are effectively increased to 31.25% and 25.69%, respectively. The all-fiber passively Q-switched erbium doped fiber lasers based on WSe2 and MoSe2 SAs are demonstrated. The signal-to-noise ratios of those lasers are measured to be 72 and 57 dB, respectively. Results indicate that the proposed WSe2 and MoSe2 SAs are efficient photonic devices to realize stable fiber lasers.
