ABSTRACT
In this paper, two-dimensional material Sb2Te3 nanosheets are fabricated and the optical nonlinear response is investigated. A laser diode (LD) end-pumped doubly Q-switched TmYAP laser with electro-optic modulator (EOM) and Sb2Te3 nanosheets based saturable absorber (SA) is presented. The shortest pulse duration of 38â
ns is achieved at the pulse repetition frequency of 100â
Hz, corresponding to the highest peak power of 111.8â
kW. The double Q-switching technique shows the advantages of pulse duration compression and peak power improvement. The coupled rate equations for the doubly Q-switched laser are developed and the corresponding numerical simulation agrees with the experimental results. We believe that the Sb2Te3 is a potential nanomaterial for the application in optoelectronic field.
