Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of measurement mechanism of stimulated Brillouin frequency shift during amplification of single single-frequency pulse.
Background technology
High power single-frequency pulse signal has narrow linewidth, advantages such as beam quality with diffraction limit, thereby in industry, medical treatment, scientific research, fields such as military affairs have obtained using widely, can be used for coherent light beam and close bundle, the pumping source of optical parametric oscillation and high-precision interferometry, as gravitational wave detection, but because its live width is generally at KHZ~MHZ order of magnitude, much smaller than stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) gain bandwidth (GB) (generally at tens MHZ), thereby make the back become the principal element that influences single-frequency laser and the raising of amplifier output power to SBS, SBS will cause the pulse waveform distortion, but permanent damage system device when serious, thus effectively the monitoring back to the generation of SBS with to measure its frequency displacement be vital.
Through the simple signal light of theory calculating for wavelength 1 μ m, Brillouin Brillouin gain bandwidth (GB) Δ v BBe about 38MHz, produce the peak value brillouin gain at the about 16.5GHz of Stokes shift place, Brillouin Brillouin frequency displacement 16.5GHz, promptly wavelength moves about 0.06nm.
But in experimental verification, the high precision spectro-metre is generally all expensive.So be subjected to the restriction of laboratory condition, have two difficult points with normal optical spectrometer measuring-signal light and excited Brillouin Brillouin wavelength: 1. spectrometer is easier to the measurement of continuous or quasi-continuous spectrum, and flashlight is the monopulse that repetition frequency has only 1Hz in the experiment, and spectrometer is difficult to capture signal spectrum; 2. the difference of flashlight and Brillouin Brillouin optical wavelength is 0.06nm, and the minimum resolution of normal optical spectrometer has only 0.05nm or bigger, even spectrometer adopts external trigger to capture flashlight synchronously, also be difficult to wavelength two approaching spectral discriminations like this are come out.
Summary of the invention
Excited Brillouin frequency displacement measuring equipment is caught single pulse signal difficulty, measuring accuracy is low, cost is high deficiency when amplifying in order to overcome existing single pulse signal, the invention provides a kind of measurement mechanism that can change the simple and cheap stimulated Brillouin frequency shift during amplification of single single-frequency pulse of its Free Spectral Range, measuring accuracy height, experimental facilities flexibly.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the present invention is further described.
With reference to Fig. 1, a kind of measurement mechanism of stimulated Brillouin frequency shift during amplification of single single-frequency pulse, the pure-tone polse signal source 1 that comprises a repetition frequency 1Hz, two 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM, F-P interferometer and CCD display 8, described pure-tone polse signal source 1 is connected with the end of one 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM2, the output terminal of described 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM2 connects signal amplifier 3, described signal amplifier 3 connects the end of another 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM4, the other end welding mutually of the other end of one 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM2 and another 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM4, the output terminal of described another 2 * 1 wavelength division multiplexer WDM4 links to each other with described F-P interferometer 6, and the output terminal of described F-P interferometer 6 connects described CCD display 8.

In the present embodiment, adopt simple signal source bandwidth to have only 10 in the experiment -4Nm, much smaller than the excited Brillouin gain bandwidth (GB), so the SBS threshold value is very low, because SBS is the energy conversion that power surpasses the pulse center of Brillouin's threshold value a stokes wave only, thereby the Stokes pulse is narrower than signal pulse, and the peak power of Stokes will be above the output power of signal pulse, too high Stokes peak power will make optical passive components such as optical fiber or optical isolator obtain permanent damage, so break signal source for fear of the back of generation to stimulated Brillouin scattering light, should monitor the back in real time to SBS light at the WDM2A port.
Adopt centre wavelength 1053nm, repetition frequency 1Hz, live width 10 -4The narrow linewidth signal source of nm, increase the pump power of double-cladding fiber amplifier 3 gradually, increase along with pump power, distortion appears in the pulse of output amplifying signal, observes the back to SBS light at the WDM2A port simultaneously, enters fixedly F-P interferometer 6 with amplifying signal light through WDM2, the fixing long 0.3cm of F-P interferometric cavity, Free Spectral Range 30GHz, corresponding wavelength 0.1nm can be observed two cover interference fringes at CCD display 8.Wavelength difference is calculated by moving interference fringes in the position of two interference rings of contrast.The coordinate that forward signal interference of light ring A is ordered among Fig. 2 is (350,280), and the B point coordinate is (173,280); The back be (242,280) to Brillouin Brillouin interference of light ring C point coordinate among Fig. 3, and the D point coordinate is (112,280), and calculating its wavelength difference is (350-242) * 0.1nm/ (350-173)=0.06102nm, moves in full accord with the SBS wavelength of Theoretical Calculation.The accurate measurement of excited Brillouin (SBS) frequency displacement when obtaining the amplification of single-frequency monopulse thus.
This device can be long by the chamber that changes fixing F-P chamber, change Free Spectral Range and resolution flexibly, its versatility is stronger, whole apparatus structure is simple, cheap, solve the low and fugacious problem of single pulse signal of common spectro-metre resolution, can be widely used in the line width of Laser Measurement, differentiated the application of many occasions such as zlasing mode.
