Description

A kind of laser selective focus device and method for designing thereof
Technical field
This patent relates to photodetector components and parts technology, specifically is meant a kind of device and method for designing thereof of utilizing interference effect that laser is carried out selectivity focusing, and it is used for making the laser selective focus device of laser communication.
Background technology
No matter be for optical fiber communication, free-space communication, still for the laser active probe, especially along with the development of quantum communications, detector technology highly sensitive, high s/n ratio all is vital.In order to reduce the dark current of device, generally by reducing the area of device, but the device photosurface reduce to weaken coupling efficiency with front end optical system, cause the reduction of response device.Because decay, beam divergence and the drift of laser in the propagation in atmosphere process, the laser signal that causes receiver to receive is very faint, simultaneously, because the existence of stronger sky background noise, faint laser signal often is submerged among the noise of bias light formation.In order to catch laser signal accurately, obtain higher signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio), receiving system often needs to use super narrow bandpass filter to suppress the interference of sky background noise effectively.But optical filter has also reduced signal energy in the decay background energy, be generally 20% to 80%, simultaneously the general also more complicated, loaded down with trivial details of spectral filtering system.Therefore, any bias light in can the direct filtration received signal, the method for reseptance that directly extracts laser signal all is that technological value is arranged very much.Invent and a kind ofly can omit optical filter direct filtration bias light, extract laser signal, the detector technology that has big light receiving area simultaneously then is that more great technical meaning is arranged for laser communication.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this patent is exactly to propose a kind of ground unrest that can significantly weaken in the received signal, directly extract laser signal and laser signal is focused on, can enlarge simultaneously effective photosensitive area of sensitive detection parts equivalently, improve the photoelectric detector of system signal noise ratio.
The purpose of this patent is achieved in that
Utilize common growth technology growth photodetector, prepare photodetector, comprise table top, upper/lower electrode preparation etc. by common preparation technology.In order to obtain as far as possible little dark current and big as far as possible response device speed, the actual photosurface of photodetector should be as much as possible little, is generally tens microns.
Preparation laser selective lens can prepare by following two kinds of methods:
One. go up according to Fresnel zone plate principle evaporation metal at microslide (jewel sheet or glass sheet etc.), form the light and shade ring.The microslide of carrying light and shade ring is placed semiconductor photo detector the place ahead, make both spacing just in time equal the focal length of Fresnel zone plate.
Two. the substrate of the photodetector for preparing is carried out attenuated polishing handle, satisfy the focal length requirement, on the substrate of handling well,, form the light and shade ring according to Fresnel zone plate principle evaporation metal until substrate thickness.
At this, we can decide the focal length (prime focus is apart from the distance of zone plate) of Fresnel zone plate from the thickness of the distance of photodetector or substrate according to microslide, according to determining good focal length, the radius size that optical maser wavelength is determined the light and shade ring of Fresnel zone plate.The number of rings of Fresnel zone plate light and shade ring need obtain often, thereby form the coherent length (approximately several micron to tens micron) of the face size dimension of whole Fresnel zone plate much larger than the background bias light, as get 1 millimeter and even bigger, the persistence length of laser under possible condition, obtains as far as possible greatly, because often can reach the magnitude of rice.For the Fresnel zone plate of a fixed sturcture size for preparing on request, have only the laser of specific wavelength on photodetector, to focus on.At this, in order to strengthen the coupling efficiency of front end optical system and detector, because what the diameter of Fresnel zone plate has been provided with is very big, can be the millimeter magnitude, effective photosurface of whole like this receiving device is just improved greatly, can improve 2 orders of magnitude at least than the response with photodetector by area.Yet the photosensitive first equivalent area of the detector that such focusing process forms enlarges only effective for the long laser of persistence length, little for the background bias light owing to coherent length, focussing force can not have been realized, so the equivalent area for the photosensitive unit of background bias light detector does not increase, opposite owing to becket on the Fresnel zone plate has also kept off part background bias light, so the influence of background bias light has further been reduced.
The core of this patent be on the common photoelectric detector by external or on substrate according to Fresnel zone plate principle evaporation metal light and shade ring, have than large photosensistive surface, can filter parasitic light, selectivity and absorb laser and it is had the photodetector of focusing performance thereby formed one.For convenience of explanation, be that example is illustrated with the laser selective focus device of 1.5 micron wave lengths below.
This patent based on principle of work be: for the received signal that transmits from afar, can be approximated to be plane wave, when received signal incides on the laser selective focus device 3, incident light interferes effect via 1, and at 2 places generation convergence prime focus, because interference effect only occurs between the coherent light, has only coherent length can produce interference greater than the light of Fresnel ring size in the light collecting device.For laser, its coherent length is generally greater than 1 meter, 1 lateral dimension in the device for this reason, and therefore, laser signal interferes effect via 1, and assembles at photodetector 2 places, is absorbed by the device layer of having chance with.Yet for other parasitic light, owing to be not coherent light, its coherent length has only micron dimension, for example for the parasitic light of 1.5 micron wave lengths, its coherent length is usually about 50 microns, and the coherence of light wave had just disappeared when the distance between the light and shade striped was greater than 50 microns on 1 for this reason, sees through 1 1.5 microns parasitic light this moment and just can not interfere effect, also just can convergence not take place at 2 places and be absorbed, thereby 1.5 microns parasitic light has directly been weakened greatly at 2 places by device.Simultaneously, because 1 fixed focal length has only the laser of specific wavelength (wavelength equals 1.5 microns) to assemble at 2 places at 2 places, so, for the unmatched light of wavelength (wavelength is not equal to 1.5 microns), after 1, just can not focus on 2 places and be absorbed, but directly disperse propagation by device.At this, 1 area is generally than 2 big several magnitudes of area, see through 1 laser and all can focus on the layer of being had chance with on 2 and absorb, thereby effective photosurface of device 2 has been enhanced several magnitudes, and photoresponse has obtained great enhancing.Therefore, device 3 is direct filter out background noise just, only absorbs laser signal, has both realized the effect of super narrow bandpass optical filter, can increase effective photosurface of device again to a certain extent, thereby improves the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) of device.
The advantage of this patent is: this detector not only can focus on absorption to the laser of specific wavelength, can also effectively suppress laser signal parasitic light in addition simultaneously, weakens ground unrest.Simultaneously,, strengthened the photoresponse of device, improved the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) of system because the diameter of lens much larger than the photosurface of photodetector reality, in the effective photosurface that increases device, has also improved the coupling efficiency of detector and front end optical system.Simultaneously, also fairly simple, the easy operating of preparation of devices.
