We demonstrate a simple, compact and low-cost mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) using a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) poly-ethylene oxide (PEO) composite as a passive saturable absorber (SA). The composite with an SWCNT concentration of 18wt% is prepared by mixing the SWCNT homogeneo...
