Pulse fiber lasers are recent developments that produce efficient pulse lasers by incorporating gain medium, saturable absorber (SA) materials and SA hosts. However, the SA hosts can be improved for stable generation pulse fiber laser. This discussion emphasizes the fabrication and characterisation of tapered and arc-shaped fiber using the flame-brushing and wheel polishing technique, respectively. Examples of using tapered fiber and arc- shaped fiber to generate Q-switched and mode-locked will be deliberated that can possibly be applied in communications, medicine and sensing.
