研究目的
Investigating the stability of black phosphorus saturable absorbers (BP-SA) under adverse environmental conditions for ultrafast laser applications.
研究成果
The parylene-C passivation layer significantly enhances the stability of BP-SA in adverse environmental conditions, enabling stable mode-locked pulse generation for over 200 hours under high temperature and humidity. This approach could facilitate the practical application of BP-based devices in challenging environments.
研究不足
The study focuses on the stability of BP-SA under specific adverse conditions (high temperature and humidity). The applicability of these findings to other environmental conditions or materials is not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study utilized inkjet-printed BP saturable absorbers (BP-SA) protected by a parylene-C layer to investigate their stability in harsh environmental conditions. The BP-SA was integrated into an erbium-doped ring laser cavity and immersed in water at ~60°C.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
BP-SAs were fabricated on polyethylene terephthalate substrate from inkjet printing of binary solvent-based inks of unfunctionalized BP flakes, followed by parylene-C protective layer deposition.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Ultrashort fiber laser, erbium-doped fiber (EDF), wavelength division multiplexer (WDM), isolator (ISO), fiber polarization controller (PC), fused-fiber coupler.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
The BP-SA was integrated into a fiber laser cavity and immersed in water at ~60°C. The performance was monitored over time to assess stability.
5:Data Analysis Methods
The stability was assessed by monitoring the mode-locked pulses' spectral width, central wavelength, and pulse width over time.
