Abstract :
We fabricate thin films incorporating single-walled carbon nanotubes by a simple method and construct an Erbium-doped fiber laser to test our saturable absorbers to passive mode-lock them. We present a study about total cavity dispersion in mode-locked regime to produce higher bandwidths.
