A stable Q-switched erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) is demonstrated using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as a passive saturable absorber. A prefabricated D-shaped silica fiber is coated with AgNPs using electron beam deposition method. Four different sizes of D-shaped fiber, which were controlled by o...
