摘要：

We report a simple way to fabricate a high optical quality single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite. The composites demonstrate strong saturable absorption at similar to 1.5 mu m, the spectral range for optical communications. These are used as mode-lockers in a fiber laser. We achieve similar to 713 fs pulse generation and up to 8 mW output power. (c) 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
