Simulation of Ytterbium Doped Double Clad Fiber Laser Output Power by Using Liekki Application Designer Software

Erbium and ytterbium doped fibers are usually used as optical amplifiers in fiber optic communications. for high power fiber laser application, ytterbium doped double clad fiber is among the best candidate. however, the appropriate power budget should be reviewed on the ytterbium doped double clad fiber that can be used for certain purpose of laser application. due to high cost and limited budget to initiate the development of fiber lasers, it is necessary to simulate the power distribution that just enough to produce the laser. every component in the software application acted as a real component in the fiber laser. several parameters and configuration of fiber laser are investigated and discussed.
