Abstract
Utilizing the saturable absorption characteristics of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), a passively Q-switched 1066 nm laser based on a novel Nd:GdYNbO 4 mixed crystal as well as a two-dimensional (2D) layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ) was realized for the first time. The highest repetition rate, the shortest pulse width and maximum peak power were 172 kHz, 723 ns and 0.85 W for Nd:GdYNbO 4 /WS 2 laser, respectively. The corresponding values for the Nd:GdYNbO 4 /MoS 2 laser were 122 kHz, 532 ns and 1.63 W. Furthermore, it was found that WS 2 required a lower excitation energy, while a MoS 2 nanosheet exhibits a deeper modulation depth.
