研究目的
To investigate the nonlinear optical properties of bismuthene quantum dots (Bi-QDs) and their application as saturable absorbers in passively Q-switched near-infrared (NIR) lasers.
研究成果
The study demonstrated that Bi-QDs synthesized via the LPE method exhibit significant nonlinear optical properties, making them suitable as saturable absorbers in passively Q-switched NIR lasers. The shortest pulse durations of 150 ns and 155 ns were achieved at 1.06 and 1.34 μm, respectively. The ground state and excited state absorption cross sections of Bi-QDs were calculated for the first time, and the impact of the excited state lifetime on laser performance was numerically simulated. The findings confirm the potential of Bi-QDs for applications in ultrafast photonics.
