Abstract

In this paper, we propose an ultrashort pulsed waveguide laser using carbon nanotube saturable absorber integrated with gain medium, in which the carbon nanotube saturable absorber is directly sprayed on the Er-Yb doped phosphate glass ion-exchange waveguide, a linear cavity is chosen. The waveguide structure and lasing performance of the proposed waveguide laser are analyzed theoretically. The effects of the nonlinear coefficient and cavity dispersion on the output characteristics of the ultrashort pulsed waveguide laser are discussed.
