    Figures & Tables(5)
    (a) TEM image of the CsPbBr3 perovskite QDs. (b) High-resolution TEM image of a single QD. (c) Schematic of the CsPbBr3 perovskite lattice. (d) Normalized linear absorption (black) and PL (red) spectra for the CsPbBr3 perovskite QD dispersion. (e) PL decay kinetics of the CsPbBr3 perovskite QDs under excitation at 405 nm.
    (a) Open-aperture Z-scan results of CsPbBr3 perovskite QDs under excitation of 515 nm, with a 1 kHz repetition rate at different intensities. (b) Normalized transmission as a function of intensity for the 15.6 GW cm−2 curve in (a).
    Passively Q-switched laser results for the CsPbBr3 perovskite QDs as saturable absorbers: (a) pulse trains measured at average output powers of 9.1 mW with a repetition rate of 96.2 kHz, (b) single pulse waveform, and (c) output laser spectrum. The inset shows the output beam spot.
    (a) Laser output power characteristics of Q-switched modes. (b) Variations of pulsewidths and pulse repetition rates with increasing absorbed pump powers for the 522 nm Q-switched visible laser.
