Description

Based on reflection-type saturable absorber and the preparation method of Graphene
Technical field
The present invention relates to laser optic, particularly relate to a kind of reflection-type saturable absorber and preparation method.
Background technology
Ultrashort pulse has important application in fields such as optical fiber communication, ultra-fast optical, Fibre Optical Sensor, industrial processes, optical information processing, laser guidance, medical treatment, inertial confinement fast ignitions, causes the extensive research of people in recent years.Saturable absorber is that laser with active-passive lock mould is used for one of common method realizing ultrashort pulse.Saturable absorber realizes the fundamental mechanism of locked mode: when light pulse is by this absorber, the loss of its limit alar part is greater than the loss of middle body, and its intensity is enough to make absorber saturated, and result light pulse is narrowed in the process passing through absorber.
Current saturable absorber mainly contains: dyestuff, colour centre crystal, semiconductor saturable absorbing mirror (SESAM), Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) etc., but has respective defect separately.Dyestuff and colour centre crystal are usually used in solid state laser, are difficult to apply in optical fiber mode locked laser.Semiconductor saturable absorbing mirror on Bragg mirror, grows layer of semiconductor saturated absorbing body obtain.Although this saturable absorber is the most frequently used at present, but the growth conditions of its operation wavelength, modulation depth, saturation intensity and semi-conducting material and material, thickness etc. have relation, complex manufacturing technology, operating wavelength range is narrow, and modulation depth is difficult to adjustment.Single Walled Carbon Nanotube absorbs optical wavelength and is determined by caliber and chirality, comprises metal type pipe and semi-conductor type pipe, and not easily disperses, be unfavorable for preparing saturable absorber.
The discovery of Graphene in 2004, for people bring the new material as saturable absorber, not only there is absorption intensity low, supper-fast recovery time, modulation depth is adjustable, and due to distinctive zero band gap feature, saturated absorption characteristic and wavelength have nothing to do, these good feature supplements deficiency of above-mentioned several saturable absorber material.
But, now the existing saturable absorption body structure based on Graphene mainly contain be attached to fiber end face, be attached to side cut open polishing fine, be attached to tapered fiber cone district three kinds.
