摘要

Two-dimensional(2D)materials have been regarded as a promising nonlinear optical medium for fabricating versatile optical and optoelectronic devices.Among the various photonic applications,the employment of 2D materials as nonlinear optical devices such as saturable absorbers for ultrashort pulse generation and shaping in ultrafast lasers is one of the most striking aspects in recent years.In this paper,we review the recent progress of 2D materials based pulse generation and soliton shaping in ultrafast fiber lasers,and particularly in the context of 2D materials-decorated microfiber photonic devices.The fabrication of 2D materials-decorated microfiber photonic devices,high performance mode-locked pulse generation,and the nonlinear soliton dynamics based on pulse shaping method are discussed.Finally,the challenges and the perspective of the 2D materials-based photonic devices as well as their applications are also discussed.
