Summary:In this paper, a spectral model by incorporating SRS effect is proposed and established, which is feasible for analyzing the SRS effect both in high-power fiber oscillator and master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system. The theoretical results show that the SRS effect is tightly related to the bandwidths of the fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) and it can be efficiently suppressed by optimizing the bandwidth of the FBGs. Besides, the established theoretical model is also feasible for analyzing the influence of seed power on the SRS effect. The theoretical predictions agree well with the previous experimental results.
