Abstract

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides are considered promising materials for next-generation photonics and nano-optical devices. Although many previous reports have shown saturable absorption of molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2), these nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of MoSe2 were measured in separate works and under different conditions with their hot-carrier relaxations. Here, we conducted a series of coherent studies on the NLO properties of few-layer MoSe2 via open-aperture Z-scan and degenerate pump-probe techniques. These measurements were taken to test the materials’ capabilities as a slow-saturable absorber. A slow-absorber model was employed to analyze the NLO measurements, and the results show that the NLO modulation depth was modeled to be 7.4% and 15.1% for the linear absorption coefficients of 5.22  cm−1 and 6.51  cm−1, respectively. The corresponding saturated intensities were modeled to be 39.37  MW/cm2 and 234.75  MW/cm2, respectively. The excitation carrier recovery time of few-layer MoSe2 was measured by degenerate pump-probe techniques to be ∼220  ps. These nonlinear optical performances make it a promising slow-saturable absorber for passive mode locking in femtosecond lasers.

Fig. 2. Z-scan results of few-layer MoSe2. The linear absorption coefficients are (a) 5.22  cm−1 and (b) 6.51  cm−1, respectively, which are shown in the insets. The measurements were carried out under irradiation of increasing laser intensity. (c) Schematic of an open-aperture Z-scan. The laser pulses are at a center wavelength of 800 nm, with duration of ∼100  fs and a repetition rate of 100 kHz from a Ti: sapphire mode-locked laser (Coherent, RegA 9000).

Fig. 3.
Fig. 3. Experimental (scatters) and fitting (solid lines) degenerate pump-probe traces of few-layer MoSe2 based on an 800 nm laser with pulse duration of ∼100  fs and repetition rate of 100 kHz. The inset in (c) shows the relaxation processes of the excited carriers. The inset in (d) shows degenerate pump-probe setup. An intense beam is employed to pump the materials, while another beam with relatively low intensity, which is delayed by a motorized linear translation stage, is used for probing the excited carriers. These two beams are modulated by an optical chopper at 733 Hz and 422 Hz, respectively. A half-wave plate and a polarizer are utilized to eliminate the coherent spikes.
