Abstract
Q-switched fiber lasers are very attractive sources in many applications such as military affairs, surgical operation, laser machining, laser marking, nonlinear frequency conversion, range finding, remote sensing and optical time domain reflectometer. To improve the peak power of Q-switched fiber laser is what we pursue, and to know the factors that influence the peak power is what we should make clear first. In this paper, certain essential factors that influence the peak power are presented, with their theoretical basis clarified, which may be helpful to the design of the kindred Q-switched fiber lasers.
