Abstract
We demonstrate passive mode-locking of a Raman fiber laser using a nanotube-based saturable absorber coupled to a net normal dispersion cavity. This generates highly chirped pulses. These are then compressed down to , with peak power, making it a simple wavelength-versatile source for various applications.
