102 fs pulse generation from a long-term stable, inkjet-printed black phosphorus-mode-locked fiber laser.
Xinxin Jin, Guohua Hu, Meng Zhang, Yuwei Hu, Tom Albrow-Owen, Richard CT Howe, Tien-Chun Wu, Qing Wu, Zheng Zheng, Tawfique Hasan
Jul 20, 2018
We demonstrate a long-term stable, all-fiber, erbium-doped femtosecond laser mode-locked by a black phosphorus saturable absorber. The saturable absorber, fabricated by scalable and highly controllable inkjet printing...

This study aims to develop a decision model to optimize the oil palm biomass value chains by minimising the environmental impact whiles generating economy value from their bioproducts. The model considers two major components...
Comparison of MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework and 13X zeolite monoliths for CO2 capture
A comparative study was conducted to determine the pore properties and adsorptive performance of monoliths containing either the MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework or 13X zeolite for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. Although there...
Impact of Genetically Predicted Red Blood Cell Traits on Venous Thromboembolism
Background Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and erythropoiesis-stimulating agent administration are cornerstones of clinical practice, yet concerns exist as to potential increased risk of thrombotic events. This study aims to...
