Description
技术领域technical field
本发明属于强激光技术领域,特别是涉及一种离焦补偿型大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光产生系统。The invention belongs to the technical field of strong lasers, in particular to a defocus compensation type high-power narrow-line width and linearly polarized optical fiber laser generating system.
背景技术Background technique
大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光在相干合成、光谱合成、非线性频率变换、地球科学、原子分子物理等诸多应用领域具有广泛的应用需求。High-power narrow-linewidth, linearly polarized fiber laser has a wide range of application requirements in many application fields such as coherent synthesis, spectral synthesis, nonlinear frequency conversion, earth science, atomic and molecular physics, etc.
通常,大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光直接采用种子伺服全保偏级联放大器实现。在全保偏级联放大链路中,由于保偏光纤中受激布里渊散射增益比非保偏光纤高,因此,受激布里渊散射效应成为限制其向大功率发展的主要受限因素之一。Usually, high-power narrow-linewidth, linearly polarized fiber lasers are directly implemented by seed servo fully polarization-maintaining cascaded amplifiers. In the full polarization-maintaining cascaded amplification link, since the gain of stimulated Brillouin scattering in polarization-maintaining fiber is higher than that of non-polarization-maintaining fiber, the effect of stimulated Brillouin scattering becomes the main limitation that limits its development to high power one of the factors.
此外,现有实验结果表明保偏放大器中模式不稳定阈值明显低于同类型非保偏放大器。受激布里渊散射和模式不稳定效应的双重制约严重限制了大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光的发展。In addition, the existing experimental results show that the mode instability threshold in PM amplifiers is significantly lower than that in non-PM amplifiers of the same type. The dual constraints of stimulated Brillouin scattering and mode instability effects severely limit the development of high-power narrow-linewidth, linearly polarized fiber lasers.
为了克服上述技术瓶颈,国内外研究人员提出了主动偏振控制技术,即利用非保偏放大器进行功率提升,进而采用偏振控制器和主动控制算法对非保偏放大器偏振度进行优化,实现大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光输出。然而,传统基于主动偏振控制技术的大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光其偏振与光信号提取模块结构复杂,集成度不高,极不利于其在相干合成、光谱合成等领域的应用。此外,当大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光用于相干合成、光谱合成等领域时,高功率密度辐照下扩束准直系统、合成元件等均会产生不同程度的离焦像差。离焦像差会对导致合成系统合成效率降低、合成后激光光束质量下降。在非线性频率变换领域,离焦像差同样会对非线性频率变换效率产生重要影响。In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical bottlenecks, researchers at home and abroad have proposed active polarization control technology, that is, using a non-polarization-maintaining amplifier to increase the power, and then using a polarization controller and an active control algorithm to optimize the degree of polarization of the non-polarization-maintaining amplifier to achieve high-power and narrow polarization. Linewidth, linearly polarized fiber laser output. However, the traditional high-power narrow-linewidth and linearly polarized fiber laser based on active polarization control technology has a complex structure of polarization and optical signal extraction modules and low integration, which is extremely unfavorable for its application in the fields of coherent synthesis and spectrum synthesis. In addition, when high-power narrow-linewidth and linearly polarized fiber lasers are used in fields such as coherent synthesis and spectral synthesis, the beam expander collimation system and synthesis components under high-power-density irradiation will produce different degrees of defocus aberration. Defocus aberration will reduce the synthesis efficiency of the synthesis system and the quality of the laser beam after synthesis. In the field of nonlinear frequency conversion, the defocus aberration will also have an important impact on the efficiency of nonlinear frequency conversion.
基于上述考虑,急需在大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光系统设计时引入离焦像差补偿技术。总体而言,设计一种具有离焦补偿功能的紧凑型大功率窄线宽、线偏振光纤激光系统具有迫切的现实意义。Based on the above considerations, it is urgent to introduce defocus aberration compensation technology in the design of high-power narrow-linewidth and linearly polarized fiber laser systems. Overall, it is of urgent practical significance to design a compact high-power narrow-linewidth, linearly polarized fiber laser system with defocus compensation function.
