Description

The spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser
Technical field
The present invention relates to the space filtering technology of laser, and in particular to a kind of high power fiber laser Spatial filtering method.
Background technology
Laser technology obtains extensive use in national economy, such as laser be largely used to medical treatment, Communication, printing and electronics industry etc..Superlaser can be used for the cutting, drilling, welding of multiple material And surface treatment.Laser has militarily had many applications so far, and laser will as antipersonnel weapon Enough power and energy are asked, this laser power density for requiring to reach target and energy density will be sufficient Enough height, are referred to as high energy laser weapon.
Fiber laser technology is the technology that laser field develops forefront in the world.Optical fiber laser is profit With the optical fiber of rare earth doped element as gain media, then form by resonator appropriate feedback mechanism, And then constitute optical fiber laser.Pump light typically uses spatial coupling in high power fiber laser, Due to there are the different angles of divergence, meeting diverse location on the focal plane of condenser lens in the pump light of pumping source output Focus on.Optical fiber used in optical fiber laser is general all relatively thin, and the pump light that diverse location is focused on is possibly can not be complete Portion is incided in optical fiber, causes pump power loss and protective layer damage;Even if inciding the pump of end face Light may also produce used heat, this part is given up due to that can not be doped Ions Absorption more than fiber numerical aperture Heat and the pump light not irradiated on end face produce used heat collective effect, optical fiber is made in high power laser Damaged under due to local abrupt temperature rise.
Spatial filter is typically used to tackle the problem a few days ago, its structure is described as follows, first with one Condenser lens is focused the light into, and aperture is placed on focal plane and selects the less light of the angle of divergence, then is passed through Another condenser lens collimates the light into output.But this method be applied to high power fiber laser in when, Can destroy the compactedness of optical fiber laser, increase the complexity of coupling pumping light, and used heat run up to it is small Around the diaphragm of hole, device failure is also easily caused.
The content of the invention
It is an object of the invention to provide it is a kind of it is compact effectively, to pump light carry out space filtering it is high-power Optical fiber laser spatial filtering method.
Realize the technical scheme of the object of the invention:A kind of spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser, It is chilly with some that it locates placement one before the condenser lens focal plane of laser pumping optically coupled system But the pin-hole filter-ing component of passage, the primary optical axis of condenser lens is through the filtering aperture on pin-hole filter-ing component; Micro- cooling duct on the pin-hole filter-ing component is connected with laser fiber clamping cooling system by cooling pipe It is connected together;Space is formed by the condenser lens of pin-hole filter-ing component and laser pumping optically coupled system Wave filter, space filtering is carried out to pump light.
A kind of spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser as described above, the pin-hole filter-ing described in it Component is placed on 2~5mm before the condenser lens focal plane of laser pumping optically coupled system.
A kind of spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser as described above, the pin-hole filter-ing described in it With 2~4 micro- cooling ducts on component.
A kind of spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser as described above, the pin-hole filter-ing described in it Hole diameter is filtered on component in 1~5mm.
Effect of the invention is that:Focusing of the invention by pin-hole filter-ing component and laser coupled system Lens forming spatial filter, space filtering is carried out to pump light, prevents the larger pump light of the angle of divergence from shining Fiber end face and protective layer are penetrated, used heat is produced, causes doped fiber to damage.What the spatial filter was used Condenser lens and coupling pump light system are shared, pin-hole filter-ing component and laser fiber clamping cooling system Together with, the complexity of system and coupling regulation is reduced, the compact of high power fiber laser is improved Property, it is allowed to the need for being more easy to meet Military Application.

Embodiment
The space of high power fiber laser of the present invention is filtered with specific embodiment below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings Wave method is further described.
The focusing of laser fiber clamping cooling system and laser pumping optically coupled system is saturating in the present embodiment Mirror is prior art.In laser fiber clamping cooling system, doubly clad optical fiber 3 is placed on optical fiber In fixture 2, fiber clamp 2 is fixed on optical fiber cooling clamper 1.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, the spatial filtering method of high power fiber laser of the present invention, Placement one is micro- with 2 at 3mm before the focal plane of condenser lens 6 of laser pumping optically coupled system The pin-hole filter-ing component 5 of cooling duct 8, the primary optical axis of condenser lens 6 is passed through on pin-hole filter-ing component 5 One filtering aperture 7, filtering the diameter of aperture 7 in 3mm.Chilly on pin-hole filter-ing component 5 is but led to Road 8 is linked together with cooling water channel in optical fiber cooling clamper 1 by cooling pipe 4.
By pin-hole filter-ing component 5 and the shape of the condenser lens of laser pumping optically coupled system 6 in the present invention Into spatial filter, space filtering is carried out to pump light.It is specific as follows:
Condenser lens 6:Shared with coupling pump light system, designing the parameters such as its focal length makes most of pumping The focal beam spot of light is less than fibre diameter, and numerical aperture meets fiber coupling requirement, and big angle of divergence pump Pu light can be stopped in focal plane by pin-hole filter-ing component 5.
Pin-hole filter-ing component 5:It is positioned over before the focal plane of condenser lens 6 at 2~5mm, uses microchannel Refrigeration (can be with 2~4 micro- cooling ducts), and laser fiber clamping cooling system share water route. The material of pin-hole filter-ing component 5 need to have high thermal conductivity, for example, be made of copper.Pin-hole filter-ing component 5 On the diameter of filtering aperture 7 in 1~5mm.Fraction of laser light is blocked at small filter, and luminous energy turns The thermal energy conduction cooling changed into, makes fiber end face temperature be not higher than 195 DEG C, to eliminate or reduce optical fiber end Face coking phenomenon, it is ensured that system coupling efficiency.
Laser of the present invention can be used for each industrial circle, realize finer Product processing (such as Automobile Welding, retrofit, laser marking), be conducive to improving product quality, it is possible to greatly save original The consumption of material.Using spatial filter of the present invention, fiber end face temperature is controlled 195 all the time Below DEG C, damage of the used heat to fiber end face and protective layer is effectively prevent, makes high power fiber laser The product development high temperature proportion of goods damageds are substantially reduced, by the coupled transfer quality of each model laser of raising and surely It is qualitative, while the compactedness of optical fiber laser is improved, so that the development week that each model laser will be shortened Phase.
