Abstract

The nickel molybdate (NiMoO₄) flakes were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that NiMoO₄ holds an irregular flake structure. The energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) results indicate that the O, Ni and Mo elements are uniformly distributed of NiMoO₄. Then an appropriate amount of NiMoO₄ was dispersed in methyl methacrylate (MMA), and polymerized at 75 ℃ for 45–60 min to obtain NiMoO₄/PMMA organic glasses. The nonlinear absorption (NLA) properties were investigated by an open-aperture (OA) Z-scan technique. The NiMoO₄/PMMA organic glasses exhibit a typical saturable absorption (SA) effect at the radiation wavelength of 532 nm. The mechanism of SA effect is related to the unique flake structure of NiMoO₄, the band gap (E_g) of NiMoO₄ and the thermo-optic effect. The results indicate that NiMoO₄ flakes can be widely applied in Q-switched and mode-locked lasers.
