Abstract
The ultra-fast optical nonlinear effects exhibited in single-walled carbon nanotubes have found several potential photonics application areas, amongst which the most practical application is for laser mode-locking. Pulsed lasers with pulse widths as short as 318fs and repetition rate up 10GHz have been realized using carbon nanotube mode-lockers.
