Journal ArticleDOI

Functional inks and printing of two-dimensional materials.

TL;DR: In this review, the current progress on ink formulation of two-dimensional materials and the printable applications enabled by them are summarized and perspectives on their research and technological future prospects are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tunable Q-switched fiber laser based on saturable edge-state absorption in few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂).

TL;DR: A mechanism, based on edge states within the bandgap, is proposed, responsible for the wideband nonlinear optical absorption exhibited by the few-layer MoS₂ sample, despite operating at photon energies lower than the material bandgap.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solution processed MoS2-PVA composite for sub-bandgap mode-locking of a wideband tunable ultrafast er:fiber laser

TL;DR: In this paper, a few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)-polymer composite by liquid phase exfoliation of chemically pristine MoS2 crystals is used to demonstrate a wideband tunable, ultrafast mode-locked fiber laser.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wideband saturable absorption in few-layer molybdenum diselenide (MoSe 2 ) for Q-switching Yb-, Er- and Tm-doped fiber lasers

TL;DR: In this paper, a free-standing molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) saturable absorber was fabricated by embedding liquid-phase exfoliated few-layer MoSe2 flakes into a polymer film, which is used to Q-switch fiber lasers based on ytterbium (Yb), erbium(Er) and thulium (Tm) gain fiber, producing trains of microsecond-duration pulses with kilohertz repetition rates at 1060 nm, 1566 nm and 1924 nm, respectively.
