Abstract :
Summary form only given. We have developed a model which allows the behaviour of arbitrary multi-arm coupled gain-switched lasers to be predicted. We have used the model to develop an enhanced Michelson-Fox-Smith resonator for low gain media, as well as a new coupled resonator for higher gain materials.
