A black arsenic-phosphorus saturable absorber (SA) was fabricated and experimentally applied for a passively Q-switched Er-doped fiber laser for the first time to the best of our knowledge. The high-quality black arsenic-phosphorus crystals were synthesized by the mineralizer-assisted chemical vapor transport (CVT) method, and the fewer-layer black arsenic-phosphorus thin film nanosheet SA was performed by a unique electrochemical delamination exfoliation procedure. Meanwhile, a stable passively Q-switched pulse was proposed based on the SA modified Er-doped ring fiber cavity, which had the repetition rate of 38.47 kHz, corresponding to a minimum pulse width of 5.26 mu s, and a corresponding output power as high as 3.68 mW was obtained. The results suggest that black arsenic-phosphorus is a good choice to make practical two-dimensional saturable absorbers for potential ultrafast photonic applications due to its designable bandgap value and excellent optical characteristics.
