APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS 96, 111112 (2010) Atomic layer graphene possesses wavelength-insensitive ultrafast saturable absorption, which can be exploited as a “full-band” mode locker. With an erbium-doped dissipative soliton fiber laser mode locked with few layer graphene, we show experimentally that dissipative solitons with continuous wavelength tuning as large as 30 nm (1570 nm-1600nm) can be obtained. Graphene mode locked, wavelength-tunable, dissipat |
