A novel cladding pumped Nd(3+) fiber laser operating in an enhanced Q-switched regime with a stable repetition rate is described. By exploiting fiber nonlinearities in the laser cavity, we demonstrated a peak power of 3.7 kW enhanced by an order of magnitude greater than that of conventional Q-switched fiber devices. Pulse durations as short as 2 ns have been achieved.
