Abstract :
Experimental demonstrations of the use of a self-imaging resonator in the phase locking of two fibre lasers are presented. The output power of the phase-locked fibre laser array exceeded 2 W. Successful attempts of phase locking show that the fibre laser array is not only capable of producing high output power but also large on-axis intensity by this method.
