摘要：

Passively mode-locked lasers using saturable absorber incorporating dispersed single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is demonstrated. The peak absorption wavelength of saturable absorber can be engineered within the gain bandwidth of erbium-doped fiber (EDF) centered at 1550 rim. The mean diameter of SWCNTs and the linear optical absorption of SWCNTs-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film are verified by Raman spectroscopy and UV-Visible-NIR spectrophotometer. By integrating the SWCNTs-PVA film into EDF ring laser (EDFL) centered at 1550 nm, we observed three pulse mode operations, Q-switching, mode-locking, and 5(th)-order harmonic mode-locking. The measured pulsewidths of the mode-locking and 5(th) harmonic mode-locking EDFL are 4.2 ps and 2.7 ps, respectively.
