Abstract
Tetradymites have extensive application in nonlinear optical devices due to their significant nonlinear optical absorption (NOA). In this work, the NOA properties of tetradymite Sb2Te2Se was investigated. It is found that a switch from reverse saturable absorption (RSA) to saturable absorption (SA) can be achieved with relatively low annealing treatment, and the modulation depth can be finely tuned through variation of crystallinity. In addition, Influence of microstructure and composition on the NOA effect is explored by comparing Sb2Te2Se, Sb2Te3 and Sb2Se3, revealing a competitive mechanism. The study reveals the NOA properties intrinsic to Sb2Te2Se, which offers greater understanding to the improvement of novel NOA materials and nonlinear optical devices.
