Abstract

A new method of coherent coupling between individual waveguide lasers using cascaded single-mode Y-junction and X-directional couplers is presented. A laser system containing two Nd³⁺-doped active fiber sections coupled via a X-type coupler is studied experimentally. The coupling efficiency of 95% between lasers is demonstrated.
