Soliton mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) using single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was experimentally demonstrated. In this work, SWCNTs was prepared by embedding into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a saturable absorber. The laser generates a soliton pulse, which operates at 1570 nm region without any additional spectral filter as a 980 nm pump power is increased above the threshold value of 60 mW.  The output solitons have a pulse duration of 0.7 ps with a repetition rate of 18.98 MHz. At pump power of 130 mW, the pulse energy and peak power are approximately 0.032 nJ and 43 W.
