摘要

Abstract

Laser state active controlling is challenging under the influence of inherent loss and other nonlinear effects in ultrafast systems. Seeking an extension of degree of freedom in optical devices based on low-dimensional materials may be a way forward. Herein

the anisotropic quasi-one-dimensional layered material Ta

PdS

was utilized as a saturable absorber to modulate the nonlinear parameters effectively in an ultrafast system by polarization-dependent absorption. The polarization-sensitive nonlinear optical response facilitates the Ta

PdS

-based mode-lock laser to sustain two types of laser states

i.e.

conventional soliton and noise-like pulse. The laser state was switchable in the single fiber laser with a mechanism revealed by numerical simulation. Digital coding was further demonstrated in this platform by employing the laser as a codable light source. This w

ork proposed an approach for ultrafast laser state active controlling with low-dimensional material

which offers a new avenue for constructing tunable on-fiber devices.
