| contents | Nonreciprocity is fundamental to photonic and optoelectronic devices such as all-optical diodes for ultrafast optical signal processing. However, previous nonreciprocity is mainly based on linear optical response instead of nonlinear optical response based on recently developed two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals heterostructures. Herein, an all-optical diode prototype based on nonreciprocal nonlinear absorption and interfacial charge transfer is proposed and designed by both simulation and experiment based on ready van der Waals heterostructures. The giant saturable absorption from 2D MXenes (NbC) and reverse saturable absorption from 2D chalcogenides (GaS) play a synergistic role in the designed all-optical diodes, which is characterized by a femtosecond laser based Z-scan system. The comprehensive physical mechanism of this all-optical diode based on 2D van der Waals NbC/GaS heterostructure designed by simulations, is consistent with experiments under the consideration of both nonreciprocal nonlinear absorption and interfacial effect. This all-optical diode based on the 2D van der Waals heterostructure features the simplicity, scalability, stability, integration, and compatibility with the complementary planar fabrication technology, which can further extend and miniaturize the nonlinear photonic and optoelectric devices. |
