We present the first demonstration, to the best of our knowledge, of a mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) employing tin phthalocyanines (SnPc) as a saturable absorber (SA). The investigated SA exhibits a notable modulation depth of 18.6%, fabricated via a simple, cost-effective method, wherein the SnPc compound is embedded into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film. Integration of this thin film into the EDFL cavity facilitates the generation of output pulses with a repetition rate of 0.96 MHz and a pulse duration of 2.68 ps. The frequency spectrum showcases a signal-to-noise ratio of up to 73.2 dB, affirming the stability of the mode-locking operation. Operating at a wavelength of 1531.7 nm, this picosecond pulse train holds significant promise for diverse applications, including high-precision optical metrology, frequency-comb generation, and broadband absorption spectroscopy.
