How to get file names only when using dir()?

Hello I am trying to get only the file names after using the dir() function without using a for loop. For the moment I am doing the following:
clc;
clear;
folder = uigetdir();
fileList = dir(fullfile(folder, '*.mat'));
Is there a possible way to do what I want in order to be able to sort them and manipulate them easily?

fileList = {fileList.name}
If you want to remove the file extension:
fileList = strrep(filelist, '.mat', '')
