Q-switched and mode-locked pulse generation in Erbium-doped fiber lasers (EDFLs) are demonstrated using Poly 2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene (MEH-PPV) organic semiconductor material as a saturable absorber (SA) for the first time. The MEH-PPV was prepared in the form of a thin fi...
