Nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer is one of important components in integrated optical circuits. This paper displays amplification of one beam by the other in a saturable nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer, having two input ports and one output port. In this paper, we import two input beam, one as control beam and the other one as input beam, we could amplify the input beam by means of control beam. We carried out the simulations and numerical calculation by using of beam propagation method.
