Abstract
In ultrafast all-optical signal processing, the all-optical method is crucial, and all-fiber technique offers a wide range of applications in optical communications. This study investigated the amplitude modulation using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) embedded into chitin as saturable absorber (SA). The MWCNTs-chitin SA is fabricate using a liquid phase exfoliation method to reduce complexity and produce an excellent material quality. In this paper, an optical amplitude modulator produced a linear region with a regression line of the peak intensity at pump power range from 17.92 mW to 67.92 mW with modulation efficiency of 0.50 dB/mW. © 2021 Institute of Physics Publishing.
