Description

Infrared super continuum source in ultra wide band all -fiber
Technical field
The invention belongs to super continuous spectrums laser technology field, and in particular to infrared super continuous spectrums in a kind of ultra wide band all -fiber Light source.
Background technology
Wavelength not only covers 3~5 μm and 8~12 μm of the two atmospheric windows because of it in 3~20 μm of middle-infrared band, The characteristic spectral line (molecular fingerprint spectrum) of most important molecules is also cover simultaneously, so this wave band is led in national defence, military affairs etc. Domain has an extensive and special application, such as laser orientation interference/destruction, laser radar, infrared imaging, infrared distance measurement, poisonous Gas is detected and molecule trace detection, photoelectronic warfare chemical/physical are studied etc..At present, the master of middle infrared spectrum output is realized Technology path is wanted to include:QCL, solid state laser, free electron laser, chemical laser, gas laser Device, the optical frequency-doubling laser based on nonlinear interaction, difference frequency laser, optical parametric oscillation OPO etc..However, in above-mentioned realization The method of infrared spectrum output respectively has quality, such as:QCL small volume, but complicated, beam quality it is poor, Power output is small;Although free electron laser covering wave-length coverage is very wide, expensive, bulky;Gas laser Expensive gas is consumed with chemical laser, although is produced laser energy height, but can also be produced toxic chemical byproduct;Solid It is high that laser and mid infrared laser produce laser energy, and can all solidstate, but need expensive crystal.And on Deficiency is stated so that they are difficult to excellent combination property.
Common laser undergone in nonlinear dielectric a series of nonlinear effects (such as Self-phase modulation, Cross-phase Modulation, Four-wave mixing, modulational instability, stimulated Raman scattering, arc quantum splitting etc.), make to generate many new frequencies in output spectrum Composition, spectral region obtains very big broadening, it is this can output spectrum be known as by the light source of a wide range of continuous broadening it is super continuous Compose light source.Based on infrared super continuum source in nonlinear optical fiber because it has high spatial coherence, wide spectral range, Gao Ji The advantages such as Cheng Du, high brightness, are particularly suitable for vehicle-mounted, carrier-borne, unloaded military counterweapon, detection analysis instrument and atmospheric communication The fields such as equipment, receive the concern of vast researcher in recent years.And be only limitted to can for the transparent wave band of conventional quartz optical fiber See near infrared band (~2 μm), seriously limit broadening of the super continuous spectrums to middle-infrared band.Fluoride soft glass optical fiber has Have low intrinsic loss and pass through window up to 5 μm of width, and its~1.6 μm of zero-dispersion wavelength be closer to it is more ripe at present 1.55 mu m waveband pulsed laser sources, be used to produce from the super continuous spectrums of visible infrared band.At present using fluorination object light Fibre has realized the super continuous spectrums of 0.35~6.28 mu m waveband, but the power output of laser is only in mW magnitudes and wavelength>3μm The general power of spectrum is even more less than 5mW.Optical fiber based on chalcogenide glass has than quartz and high two quantity of fluoride glass The nonlinear factor of level, and it is 20 μm in the transparency range of middle-infrared band, it is considered to be most it is hopeful to obtain covering two The nonlinear dielectric of the middle-infrared band super continuum light spectrum in individual atmospheric window and most of molecular fingerprint area.But chalcogenide glass With longer zero-dispersion wavelength (~5 μm), broadband super continuous spectrums are effectively produced, it is necessary to burst pulse of the wavelength near 5 μm It is used as pumping source.
Prior art, as Effects in Nonlinear Media with Gain, is passed through using sulfide microstructured optical fibers or suspention cored structure optical fiber Change the airport dutycycle of optical fiber to control its dispersion characteristics, design suitable core diameter and cut out the zero dispersion point of optical fiber It is to 5 μm and following, obtain super continuum source using suitable laser as effective pumping source.But this scheme uses micro-structural Or suspention cored structure, on the one hand cause the effective core area of optical fiber to greatly reduce, so that light beam coupling difficulty is added, and And limit the lifting of super continuous spectrums brightness, such as the article that ningbo of china university delivered in 2017《Mid- infraredsupercontinuumgenerationinathree-holeGe20Sb15Se65chalcogenidesuspended- corefiber》(《Infrared super continuous spectrums during core fibre is produced are suspended in midair by three holes》) in use three holes suspention core fibre core diameter for 6 μm, the coupling efficiency obtained successively only has 5%.On the other hand, the long wave of the super continuous spectrums obtained at present using this scheme Edge is respectively less than 10 μm, in addition, micro-structural or the preparation process of suspention cored structure optical fiber require higher to preparation technology, it is tempered The factors such as speed, air pressure, injection gas flow rate are difficult to accurate control, and the introducing of preparation process impurity easily increases fibre loss, entered And make it that super continuous spectrums transmissivity is relatively low, spectrum width narrow range.
Prior art fibre core and covering prepare the larger sulfide step optical fiber of numerical aperture using different sulfide, such as As2Se3-As2S3Chalcogenide fiber, As2Se3-AsSe2Chalcogenide fiber and Ge-Sb-Se chalcogenide fibers, and use large-scale ripple Long adjustable light preamplifier (OpticalPreamplifierAmplifier, OPA) or optical difference frequency generator Equipment such as (differencefrequencygeneratior, DFG) carries out pumping, is typically in its zero dispersion with centre wavelength Pulsed light near wavelength is pumped into sulfide step optical fiber, and then obtains the super continuum source of different range.Such as use 150fs Centre wavelength is 4.8 μm, pumping 20cmAs2Se3-As2S3Chalcogenide fiber (zero-dispersion wavelength be 4.5 μm), it can obtain 1.4~ 8.8 μm of super continuum sources.Expanded using the emission spectrum long wave edge of infrared super continuum source in scheme to being more than 15μm.However, this scheme is used as pumping source using large scale equipments such as OPA, DFG of Wavelength tunable so that light-source system is extremely multiple It is miscellaneous heavy and involve great expense;Simultaneously because it uses free space coupling system, pumping laser coupling after collimated is focused on It is bonded in optical fiber, output tail optical fiber, lens and the optical fiber of laser need to carry out accurate adjustment after fixing, and limit light source flexible Extra machine error can be also introduced while property, causes the coupling efficiency between pumping laser and optical fiber to decline;In addition, whole System is not due to being all optical fibre structure, easily by external environmental interference and influence, reduces the stability and reliability of system.
Prior art carries out multistage to pumping laser using fluoride fiber as nonlinear dielectric, using cascade system and put Greatly, using a variety of optical fiber as nonlinear dielectric and by the multistage spectrum widening of Raman self-frequency shift effect progress, then with this light source Super continuum source is obtained in injection ZBLAN optical fiber.Using all optical fibre structure this method more, improve system stability and Reliability, but the non-linear behavior of fluoride fiber is limited to, therefore obtained super continuous spectrums scope is narrower.At present, use Fluoride fiber has realized the super continuous spectrums of 0.35~6.28 mu m waveband, but the power output of laser is only in mW magnitudes, and And wavelength is even more less than 5mW more than the general power of 3 μm of spectrum.Hou Jing research groups of the National University of Defense technology are in article 《15.2Wspectrallyflatall-fibersupercontinuumlasersourcewith>1Wpowerbeyond3.8μ m》)(《All -fiber super continuous spectrums lasing light emitter》) use ZBLAN fluoride fibers as nonlinear dielectric, pass through all optical fibre structure real 1.9~4.2 μm of super continuum sources are showed, as shown in figure 1, using repetition to be 1ns, centre wavelength for 6MHz, pulsewidth in experiment For 1550nm pulse laser as seed source, light is co-doped with by an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) and two erbium-ytterbiums Pulse is amplified by fiber amplifier (EYDFAs), and the pulse peak power after amplification reaches 2kW, then is injected into single-mode fiber (SMF) 1.5~2.3 μm of super continuous laser is produced by Raman soliton self-frequency shift, then is injected into thulium doped fiber amplifier (TDFA) 1.5~1.9 μm of light absorbs are fallen, while by 1.9~2.2 μm of light amplification, the light after amplification passes through fiber mode Further frequency displacement produces 1.9~2.8 μm of super continuous spectrums to field adapter (MFA), and injects the ZBLAN fluoride fibers of 12m length, real Existing 1.9~4.2 mu m all-fiber super continuum sources.Then this scheme uses ZBLAN fluoride fibers as nonlinear dielectric, Its nonlinear factor is smaller, and transparency range is at 0.2~4.5 μm so that the spectrum width of its broadening spectrum is restricted.
