The single-wall carbon nanotube-polyvinyl alcohol (SWCNT-PVA) saturable absorber (SA) with ratios of 1:1, 3:2, and 2:3 was utilised to demonstrate a passively Q-switched erbium-doped fibre laser (EDFL). As compared to the EDFL reference, SWCNT-PVA SA of ratio 2:3 was determined to be the best ratio,...
