Description

The linear polarization sound and light Q adjusting optical fiber laser of single-end optical fiber coupling
Technical field
The present invention relates to fiber laser, particularly a kind of sound and light Q adjusting optical fiber laser of linear polarization of single-end optical fiber coupling, this laser are the full-optical-fiber lasers of the high repetition of output, narrow linewidth, narrow pulsewidth (tens nanosecond of pulse duration), high-peak power.
Technical background
The pulse optical fiber of high repetition, high-peak power, narrow pulsewidth, narrow linewidth all has fabulous researching value and great application prospect in fields such as medical treatment, scientific research, military affairs and industrial processes, all is a direction that receives much concern all the time.Require aspects such as higher precision detection, interferometry, imaging demonstration, optical communication, light sensing, optical nonlinearity frequency inverted, laser beam combination, biologic medical diagnosis, needing to use linearly polarized laser.Therefore, the pulse optical fiber of linear polarization has obtained people's favor with its special advantages.Because the fiber gain medium is longer, and there is certain inclined to one side effect of moving back in ordinary optic fibre for linearly polarized light, so optical-fiber laser is difficult for keeping good linear polarization characteristic in oscillatory process.On the other hand, in order to break through of the restriction of conventional solid optics, reach the important trend that integrated system small-sized, compact, good stability also is the fiber laser development through full fiberize to laser system.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is intended to overcome the deficiency of above-mentioned prior art; A kind of linear polarization sound and light Q adjusting optical fiber laser of single-end optical fiber coupling is provided; This laser should have full optic module structuring, high repetition is adjustable, exports the linearly polarized light pulse of narrow pulsewidth, narrow linewidth, compact conformation; Volume is little, good stability and practical characteristics.
Technical solution of the present invention is following:
A kind of linear polarization sound and light Q adjusting optical fiber laser of single-end optical fiber coupling; Characteristics are that its formation comprises successively: laser diode pumping source, pumping protection device, pumping coupler, fiber grating, double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre, fiber port coupled lens, acousto-optic modulator and level crossing; Described fiber grating and level crossing constitute linear F-P cavity configuration; Double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre is as gain media; The laser alignment of the double clad polarization maintaining optical fibre being exported through the fiber port coupled lens arrives acousto-optic modulator, and an end of described double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre and the coupling of fiber port coupled lens is called rear end face, and this rear end face is worn into Brewster's angle; It is vertical with the fast axle or the slow axis of described double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre that the normal of this rear end face keeps; To obtain the linear polarization characteristic, described level crossing is positioned at the first-order diffraction light direction of described acousto-optic modulator to form feedback, and laser is by the end output of the fiber grating of described double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre.
The along that is centered close to described fiber port coupled lens of described double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre rear end face.
The first-order diffraction light direction of described level crossing and described acousto-optic modulator is perpendicular, to pump light high pass through, laser is high anti-.
Described fiber grating is the fiber grating of double clad, and grating only limits core segment, causes the laser part reflection, and the pump light wavelength is not had influence.
The course of work of the present invention is:
The pump light that laser diode pumping source sends gets into described magnetic tape trailer fine fiber grating through the pumping coupler coupling from left end through the pumping protection device, in double clad doping polarization maintaining optical fibre, produces stimulated radiation laser.Because the existence of the Brewster's angle of an end of gain fibre and fiber port coupled lens; Make linearly polarized light partial reflection, part transmission with the perpendicular direction polarization of this output end face normal; And another polarization direction of quadrature has only transmitted light, does not have reverberation with it; Promptly be equivalent to add decay in various degree, make that the laser that has only transmission on the polarization direction takes the lead in resonant cavity, producing bigger gain, come and go and strengthen two polarization directions.The linearly polarized laser that produces gets into acousto-optic modulator through the fiber port Lens Coupling; Come the loss in the periodic modulation chamber by acousto-optic modulator; After flat mirror reflects, be coupled into gain fibre once more, at last through fiber grating, thereby the Q impulse of having realized the linearly polarized light fibre laser is exported.
Technique effect of the present invention:
The present invention introduces the single-end optical fiber port and level crossing stuck-module structure shortens chamber length, reduced system bulk; And use first-order diffraction light is as the feedback of Q-switch laser in the chamber; Make fiber laser simple, compact; Avoid extra insertion loss, improved the stability and the efficient of output pulse laser; Adopt Brewster's angle to come control chamber inner laser polarization characteristic; Greatly guaranteed the linear polarization characteristic of pulse laser; Realized a kind of linear polarization pulse optical fiber of full optic module structure thus, its structure is compact flexibly, and high repetition is adjustable; Export the linear polarization pulse of narrow pulsewidth, narrow linewidth, satisfied the demand of various application occasions.
