Embodiment
The invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
Fig. 1 is the laser phase modulation apparatus structure schematic diagram that the present invention effectively suppresses amplitude-frequency effect.
Fig. 1 is referred to, the laser phase modulation method provided by the invention for effectively suppressing amplitude-frequency effect includes the following steps:
Step S1:The single-frequency continuous laser that single longitudinal mode laser 1 produces first is input to amplitude modulator 2;
Step S2:Then microwave signal source 3 and direct voltage source 4 is loaded to the amplitude modulator 2 to modulate into line amplitude;
Step S3:The pure-tone pulse light that the amplitude modulator 2 exports is input to phase-modulator 5 again and carries out spectrum exhibition It is wide;
Step S4:Gaussian-shape light arteries and veins finally is obtained to 6 modulation of the phase-modulator 5 loading non-sine shape radio-frequency signal source Punching.
The laser phase modulation method provided by the invention for effectively suppressing amplitude-frequency effect, wherein, the phase-modulator 5 is Lithium columbate crystal, modulated light pulse are gaussian-shape chirped optical pulse.The non-sine shape radio-frequency signal source 6 is by sine Shaping produces radiofrequency signal in proportion.Specifically, it is that will carry out shaping in advance for the radiofrequency signal for modulating lithium columbate crystal, Non-sine shape rf modulated signal is produced, lithium columbate crystal is acted on, so as to produce a kind of chirped laser of gaussian-shape.This Kind chirped laser has good inhibiting effect to transmitting amplified amplitude-frequency effect.
The operation principle of the present invention is as follows:
High power output is carried at the same time, it is necessary to single-frequency narrow-pulse laser in order to ensure to export laser-quality in ICF systems Phase-modulation is carried out, by spectrum widening.The stretched-out spectrum for the saddle-shape that sinusoidal radio frequency signal phase modulation modulation crystal obtains, this The new phase modulating method provided is invented, by producing non-sine modulated signal to rf modulated signal shaping, for phase Modulator can obtain the stretched-out spectrum of Gaussian.
Light pulse is when being subsequently transmitted amplification, since Gain-narrowing effect makes pulse narrow through spectrum, gain saturatiuon Effect makes impulse waveform gradually move (red shift) to long wavelength to Front movement, i.e. pulse frequency spectrum.Both effects will all change The spectrum distribution of pulse, causes the modulation of pulse temporal waveform.Fig. 2 is narrow for gain saturaition in transmission amplification process and gain Change effect caused by effect collective effect.Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 sets forth in identical amplifier gain bandwidth and centre wavelength Under (gain line-type bandwidth is 1nm, centre wavelength 1053nm), when input pulse bandwidth is 0.5nm, pulsewidth is 2ns, two classes The spectral change of wideband pulse and corresponding time waveform.
Fig. 3 left sides are the distorted waveform schematic diagram that shape of a saddle spectrum occurs under gain narrowing, and the right is shape of a saddle spectrum The distorted waveform schematic diagram occurred under gain saturaition;Fig. 4 left sides occur abnormal for gaussian-shape spectrum under gain narrowing Become waveform diagram, the right is the distorted waveform schematic diagram that gaussian-shape spectrum occurs under gain saturaition;As seen from the figure, nothing By be shape of a saddle light pulse or gaussian-shape light pulse after amplifier, spectral sideband is in the presence of losing and frequency spectrum is unbalance shows As.But two distinct types of wideband pulse is amplified through transmission, there are different degrees of amplitude tune for its output pulse waveform System.Wherein, the time waveform of shape of a saddle light pulse rises and falls maximum, and the time waveform of gaussian-shape light pulse rises and falls then relatively It is small.It can thus be appreciated that when 5 output waveform of phase-modulator is the light pulse of gaussian-shape, the amplitude-frequency effect that introduces after transmission is amplified It is minimum.
Regrettably current used phase modulation technique, modulated spectral shape is the shape of a saddle, it uses high Frequency sinusoidal signal is loaded on phase-modulator, so that broadening obtains the stretched-out spectrum.And the light pulse of such a shape is follow-up Larger amplitude-frequency effect can be brought in transmission amplification process.New phase modulating method provided by the invention, is penetrated by non-sine Frequency signal modulation lithium columbate crystal, can obtain the broadening type spectrum of Gaussian, so as to solve asking for amplitude-frequency effect in ICF systems Topic.
Non-sine shape radio frequency source can be obtained by the shaping by a certain percentage of multiple radiofrequency signals.For obtaining Gaussian exhibition Non-sine shape modulated signal used in wide spectrum is described as follows:The mathematics general formula of non-sine shape modulated signal is represented by y=ax2 +bx+c.Wherein, x is time term, and y is modulated signal amplitude item, and c is constant term, can be saved.And what b was represented is modulated RF The delay of flashlight, in the case of ideal synchronisation is considered, can also save.After normalization, a values can be omitted, therefore, the present invention is right Expression formula is y=x2Modulated signal decomposed, wherein x is time term, and y is modulated signal amplitude item, utilize Fourier level Number expansion obtains:
bn=0
Preceding ten of the series are taken to map, as shown in Figure 5, it can be seen that in addition to first and second, every amplitude is close Null value, and the amplitude much smaller than first, second, therefore preceding two frequencies represented can be used non-just to this as the waveform of w, 2w String signal is simulated, its amplitude divides ratio -4:1 (i.e. amplitude proportion 4:1, phase difference is the odd-multiple of π), wherein w is by non-sine Shape signal is determined.Fig. 6 be only with two fit solutions compared with preferable non-sine shape result, it can be seen that both are poor Not less, so as to preferably realize the simulation to non-sine shape modulated signal.
It can be seen from the above that non-sine shape modulated signal can be obtained, realizes Gaussian spectrum to modulating signal shaping in proportion Broadening, so as to suppress the amplitude-frequency effect of ICF systems.For the technique effect of the quantitative analysis present invention, define pulse top and rise and fall The scale factor of (modulation degree):
In formula:Amax is certain maximum of pulse amplitude modulation;Amin is its adjacent minimum.In general, the change model of R Enclose for 0~200%, R it is bigger represent pulse top modulation degree it is bigger, beam quality is poorer.
For identical amplifier gain situation (gain line-type bandwidth 1nm), the shape of a saddle and gaussian-shape two are quantitatively calculated The top modulation degree of class pulse, it is as a result as shown in the table:
By table as it can be seen that in the case of identical amplifier gain, input shape of a saddle light pulse is caused than Gaussian light pulse Time waveform modulation is much greater.So the Gaussian stretched-out spectrum that non-sine shape signal modulation lithium columbate crystal is obtained, than The shape of a saddle stretched-out spectrum that conventional method obtains, can preferably ensure the flatness of system output spectral line, effectively suppress amplitude-frequency Effect.
Although the present invention is disclosed as above with preferred embodiment, so it is not limited to the present invention, any this area skill Art personnel, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, when can make a little modification and it is perfect, therefore the present invention protection model Enclose to work as and be subject to what claims were defined.
