We report an adjustable saturable absorber based on vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Using the low-temperature alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, high-quality vertically aligned SWNTs were directly synthesized onto quartz substrates. The saturable absorption is adjustable by changing the decline angle of the substrate. We applied it as a mode-locker in the passively mode-locked fiber lasers, and optimized the operation by declining the vertically aligned SWNT sample.
