We demonstrate a Q-switched Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) using a graphene synthesised by electrochemical exfoliation of graphite at room temperature in I% sodium dodecyl sulphate ( SDS) aqueous solution. Graphene flakes obtained are mixed with polyethylene oxide (PEO) as the host polymer to produ...
