Journal ArticleDOI
Boosting the Non Linear Optical Response of Carbon Nanotube Saturable Absorbers for Broadband Mode-Locking of Bulk Lasers
Won Bae Cho,Jong Hyuk Yim,Sun Young Choi,Soonil Lee,Andreas Schmidt,Günter Steinmeyer,Uwe Griebner,Valentin Petrov,Dong-Il Yeom,Kihong Kim,Fabian Rotermund +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, single-walled carbon-nanotube absorbers are used for laser mode-locking and shown to exhibit low saturation fluence of <10 mu J cm(-2), low scattering losses, and an exceptionally rapid relaxation, with time constants reaching <100 fs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ohmic contact formation mechanism of Ni on n-type 4H–SiC
Sang Youn Han,Kihong Kim,Jong Kyu Kim,Ho Won Jang,Kwang-Ho Lee,Nam-Kyun Kim,Eun Dong Kim,Jong-Lam Lee +7 more
TL;DR: Ohmic contact formation mechanism of Ni on n-type 4H-SiC is proposed by comparing the electrical properties with microstructural change as discussed by the authors, showing that a number of carbon vacancies were produced below the contact, playing a key role in forming an ohmic contact through the reduction of effective Schottky barrier height.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-quality, large-area monolayer graphene for efficient bulk laser mode-locking near 1.25 μm.
Won Bae Cho,Jun Wan Kim,Hwang Woon Lee,Sukang Bae,Byung Hee Hong,Sun Young Choi,In Hyung Baek,Kihong Kim,Dong-Il Yeom,Fabian Rotermund +9 more
TL;DR: High-quality monolayer graphene as large as 1.2×1.2 cm2 was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition and used as a transmitting saturable absorber for efficient passive mode-locking of a femtosecond bulk solid-state laser.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication and characterization of ultrafast carbon nanotube saturable absorbers for solid-state laser mode locking near 1μm
Jong Hyuk Yim,Won Bae Cho,Soonil Lee,Yeong Hwan Ahn,Kihong Kim,Hanjo Lim,Günter Steinmeyer,Valentin Petrov,Uwe Griebner,Fabian Rotermund +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-walled carbon nanotubes (CN) is used to reflect ultrafast saturable absorbers for stable mode locking of bulk solid-state lasers operating near 1μm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene-filled hollow optical fiber saturable absorber for efficient soliton fiber laser mode-locking.
Sun Young Choi,Dae Kun Cho,Yong-Won Song,Kyunghwan Oh,Kihong Kim,Fabian Rotermund,Dong-Il Yeom +6 more
TL;DR: A novel in-line saturable absorber based on hollow optical fiber filled with graphene composite for high power operation of mode-locked fiber laser that enables robust and efficient nonlinear absorption leading to stable passive mode-locking.
