A new approach has been proposed for controlling the linearly polarised output of an ytterbium-doped double-clad fibre laser: inverted-population modulation via loss modulation in a competing channel. The steady-state output power of the working channel has been determined as a function of loss in the competing channel. The results are qualitatively interpreted in terms of standard models of a dual-channel laser.
