Q-switched erbium doped fiber laser (EDFL) was passively realized using vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) embedded into polyethylene glycol (PEG) film as saturable absorber (SA). The laser could successfully generate stable self-starting pulses when the V2O5 film was placed in an EDFL cavity. It operated at...
