The Dark Side of Lasers Some scientific discoveries completely change how we look at things: it certainly was the case for Diracs theory on antimatter or Einsteins theory of relativity. Now, our existing scientific ideas are set to change once more; new experiments show t ...
Graphene-based long-wave infrared TM surface plasmon modulator We describe theoretically a new long-wave infrared optical modulator based on the characteristics of TM surface plasmons in graphene. Calculations made using a finite- random phase approximation model, of relevant surf ...
Graphene Mode-Locked Ultrafast Laser ABSTRACT Graphene is at the center of a significant research effort. Near-ballistic transport at room temperature and high mobility make it a potential material for nanoelectronics. Its electronic and mechanical properties are also ideal for micro- and nanom ...
Graphene mode-lockers for fiber lasers functioned with evanescent field interaction Employing graphene as an intracavity passive power modulating element, we demonstrate the efficient laser pulsation in high pulse-energy regime with evanescent field interaction between the propagating light an ...
Mode locking of Ceramic Nd: YAG with graphene as a saturable absorber The mode-locking of a ceramic Nd: YAG solid-state laser (SSL) with solution processed graphene as the saturable absorber (SA) was demonstrated. Transform-limited pulses of 4 ps with a ...
