Description

A kind of fiber amplifier for suppressing optical fiber laser output intensity noise
Technical field
The present invention relates to the fiber amplifier in photoelectron technical field, and in particular to one kind suppresses optical fiber laser output The fiber amplifier of intensity noise.
Background technology
Low noise, single-frequency, C-band (wavelength is 1528.77nm~1560.61nm) lasing light emitter of narrow linewidth are in high-rate laser The fields such as communication, coherent laser detection and Microwave photonics have a wide range of applications.This kind of light source mainly includes semiconductor laser Device and Er-doped fiber laser.Compared with semiconductor laser, the line width of Er-doped fiber laser is narrower, can reach 1kHz with It is interior, and the line width of the semiconductor laser of free-running is usually more than 100kHz.But, Er-doped fiber laser is generally present Stronger intensity noise, the noise is caused by relaxation oscillation, the crest frequency of relaxation oscillation be normally at 200kHz~ 2MHz。
For above-mentioned laser intensity noise, can be suppressed using fiber amplifier.D.Q.Pan et al. is proposed to utilize and is mixed Er The gain saturaition of fiber amplifier suppresses laser intensity noise (Z Q Pan, J Zhou, F Yang, Q Ye, H W Cai,R H Qu and Z J Fang,Low-frequency noise suppression of a fiber laser based on a round-trip EDFA power stabilizer,Laser Physics,23(2013),03510501- 03510504) round trip fiber amplifier device, including single frequency optical fiber laser, optical circulator, Er-doped fiber, optical fiber, are disclosed Wavelength division multiplexer, adjustable optical attenuator, faraday's speculum and pump light source.The laser produced from single frequency optical fiber laser leads to Cross optical circulator and enter Er-doped fiber, in the presence of pump light source, gain is formed in Er-doped fiber, so as to realize to laser First time amplify, exaggerated laser is reflected by optical fibre wavelength division multiplexer and adjustable optical attenuator by faraday's speculum Pass sequentially through adjustable optical attenuator and optical fibre wavelength division multiplexer again afterwards, again from Er-doped fiber is redirected back into, realization is put for the second time Greatly, exported finally by optical circulator.The fundamental mechanism that the device can suppress laser intensity noise is, by adjusting tunable optical The insertion loss of attenuator, under specific insertion loss, power output and input power differential of round trip fiber amplifier etc. It is insensitive in the change of zero, i.e. power output to input power, so as to realize the suppression to exporting laser intensity noise.From experiment From the point of view of result, the device can produce significant inhibition to the laser intensity noise within 1kHz, and to more than 10kHz's Noise does not influence significantly then.Therefore, the apparatus and method be difficult to suppress relaxation oscillation frequency (be usually located at 200kHz~ 2MHz) intensity noise nearby, and the noise in the frequency range is the main component of optical fiber laser output intensity noise.
Additionally, for the output intensity noise of optical fiber laser, can also be suppressed using semiconductor laser amplifier.China Team of the Yang Zhong militias proposition of southern Polytechnics, is amplified using semiconductor laser amplifier to laser, and to semiconductor laser The driving current of amplifier carry out feedback control mode suppress laser intensity noise (Qilai Zhao, Shanhui Xu, Kaijun Zhou,Changsheng Yang,Can Li,Zhouming Feng,Mingying Peng,Huaqiu Deng, and Zhongmin Yang,Broad-bandwidth near-shot-noise-limited intensity noise suppression of a single-frequency fiber laser,Optics Letters,41(2016),1333- 1335).Semiconductor laser amplifier device, including laser diode (LD), polarization-maintaining wavelength division multiplexer have been built by the seminar (PM-WDM), short cavity optical fiber laser, polarization preserving fiber isolator (PM-ISO), adjustable optical attenuator (VOA), Polarization Controller (PC), fiber coupling semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), fiber band-pass filter (BPF), 1:99 fiber couplers, photodetection The driver of device, low pass filter (LPF), amplifier (AMP) and semiconductor optical amplifier.The 980nm pump lights warp that LD is produced After crossing PM-WDM, into short cavity optical fiber laser;The 1550nm laser that short cavity optical fiber laser is produced passes through PM-WDM and PM- After ISO, into VOA, laser power is suitably decayed;SOA is then entered by PC, 1550nm laser powers are put from 4mW Arrive 17.5mW or so greatly;Laser after amplification passes through BPF again, to filter the spontaneous emission light outside 1550nm;Then pass through 1: 99 fiber couplers, its 99% port as semiconductor laser amplifier delivery outlet, 1% port connection PD, by laser intensity Fluctuating is converted into electric signal, then by LPF, AMP, is input into the driver of semiconductor optical amplifier, and driver connection SOA is formed To the feedback control loop of laser intensity noise.Under the inc state of loop, laser by after semiconductor laser amplifier, Laser intensity noise near relaxation oscillation frequency reduces 50dB or so.In the state of loop closure, further significantly drop The low low-frequency noise of below 1kHz, makes the laser intensity noise of 0.8kHz to 50MHz be reduced to -150dB/Hz or so.It is above-mentioned Although preferable noise suppression effect can be obtained by the way of using semiconductor laser amplifier and by feedback control, can The laser output power for reaching is limited by semiconductor laser amplifier power capacity, the semiconductor of usual Single-Mode Fiber Coupling Laser amplifier power output is no more than 18dBm (i.e. 63mW).
In a word, the existing gain saturaition by fiber amplifier suppresses the side of the intensity noise of optical fiber laser Method, is only capable of suppressing low-frequency noise, it is impossible to suppress the noise near relaxation oscillation frequency, and the noise near the frequency is strong laser Spend the main component of noise.And using semiconductor laser amplifier and by feedback control by the way of, although can obtain preferably Noise suppression effect, but power output is relatively low.
