This study illustrates the capability of antimony telluride (Sb2Te3) utilized as a saturable absorber (SA) for generating high-power Q-switching in the 1.5-mu m region. First, the exfoliated Sb2Te3 solution was fabricated using the liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) technique and integrated onto a D-sha...
