Spider silk is a biomaterial composed of natural protein that possesses unique strength and biocompatibility. Spider silk was explored for the first time that act as a potential saturable absorber (SA) for steady Q-switched erbium-doped fiber laser pulse generation around 1569 nm. The biocompatibili...
