Abstract
In this work, we have developed an analytical model of an actively Q-switched Ytterbium-doped fiber laser by using two coupled cavities with amplifying fibers in Mach–Zehnder interferometer configuration. This oscillator system provides high peak power and high energy nanosecond pulse. The pulse energy is almost twice the energy of an individual fiber laser with a combining efficiency goes up 99%. This concept brings some novel perspectives for scaling the high energy and high peak power of nanosecond pulse fiber laser.
