For the first time, we demonstrate a novel passively mode-locked fiber laser operating at 1300 nm using purified single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a saturable absorber. The saturable absorber incorporates diameter-controlled CNTs with peak absorption /spl sim/1300 nm, guaranteeing mode-locking over the same wavelength region. The ring laser uses praseodymium-doped fiber as a gain medium. The pulse repetition rate is 3.18 MHz, and the spectral half-width is 0.15 nm. Dual-wavelength mode-locking is also demonstrated with a channel spacing of 1.1 nm.
