Description

Full optical fiber annular amplifier
Technical field
The present invention relates to fiber amplifier, particularly a kind of full fiber amplifier of loop configuration, to suppress spontaneous amplification radiation, improves multiplication factor and the power output of amplifier.
Background technology
In the application of high-power fiber amplifier, people are more and more higher to the requirement of power output.Owing to being limited to spontaneous amplification radiation and harmful nonlinear effect, common fiber amplifier is difficult to realize high-amplification-factor and high-power output; There is complex structure in cascade amplification system, cost is expensive, the shortcomings such as poor reliability, and practicality is not good.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the problem of above-mentioned existing fiber amplifier, a kind of full optical fiber annular amplifier is provided, this amplifier should have simple in structure, with low cost, steady performance, preventing that performance is better aspect spontaneous amplification radiation and harmful nonlinear effect, the lifting of output power for fibre amplifier is had to positive effect, can realize high-gain, powerful amplification output.
The technology of the present invention solution is as follows:
A kind of full optical fiber annular amplifier, comprise seed source, its feature is: successively by bundling device, wavelength division multiplexer, rare earth-doped fiber, beam splitter, the feedback link looping structure that is connected with band pass filter, the continuous laser of described seed source output is through described bundling device, wavelength division multiplexer enters described rare earth-doped fiber, the pump light of pumping source output enters after described rare earth-doped fiber amplifies described seed laser and is divided into two parts by described beam splitter through described wavelength division multiplexer, a part is through output output, another part enters described bundling device through feedback link and band pass filter, the pumping light power of described pumping source output is continuously adjustable.
Described rare earth-doped fiber is single cladded fiber, doubly clad optical fiber or photonic crystal fiber, more than will reaching 20dB to the absorption of pump light.
Described beam splitter will guarantee that power that laser enters described output is 1~1000 times of power that enters described feedback link.
Ruuning situation of the present invention should be: when the firm entry into service of amplifier, described pumping source is exported minimum power.By the time the laser after amplifying starts from described output output, then the power output that slowly strengthens described pumping source is until maximum.The described pumping source power output institute's elapsed time that often doubles must not be shorter than laser and returns along bundling device, wavelength division multiplexer, rare earth-doped fiber, beam splitter, feedback link and band pass filter the time that bundling device spends.
Technique effect of the present invention:
When amplifier of the present invention has just come into operation, pumping source adopts minimum power output, to guarantee not occur spontaneous amplification radiation and harmful nonlinear effect in the process of laser amplifier.Laser after amplification is divided into two parts after beam splitter, and a part is as power output, and another part is got back to bundling device by feedback link, as the part of seed laser, re-injects in rare earth-doped fiber and amplifies.In this process, the seed light power of amplifier is improved, and just can suitably improve the power output of pumping source, and the power output of amplifier is further increased, and the power that enters feedback link just increases, and has further promoted seed light power.In this simultaneously, use the bandwidth in band pass filter restriction annular chamber, suppress the vibration of annular chamber itself.So circulation, can spontaneous amplification radiation and harmful nonlinear effect suppressed in good situation, constantly increase the power output of amplifier, until the power of pumping source while reaching maximum, obtains the highest power stage.
Compare with technology formerly, simple in structure, with low cost and steady performance that the present invention has, preventing that performance is better aspect spontaneous amplification radiation and harmful nonlinear effect, lifting to output power for fibre amplifier has positive effect, can realize high-gain, powerful amplification output.
