title: Dynamical model for self-organized fiber laser arrays.
abstract: A dynamics model of self-organized fiber laser arrays is presented in this paper. The model does not only break the limitation of the standard slowly varying wave approximation, but also be built on the basis of Maxwell-Bloch equations which make this model more suitable to study the dynamics (especially phase dynamics) of fiber laser arrays. In this paper, this model is applied to analyze fiber laser array of interferometric configuration. The results agree well with the reported experimental results. It is also revealed that the coupling strength of 2-fiber laser array of interferometric configuration have a negligible effect on the phase-locked state of the array.
