All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The embodiment of the present invention provides a light source detection and correction system, which is a closed-loop control system capable of performing online detection and feedback adjustment on a light source, as shown in fig. 1, and the light source detection and correction system provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a coupler 20, a filter 21, a detector 22, and a control module 23.
It should be noted that the light source detection and correction system provided in the embodiment of the present invention is applied to an injection locking light source and a non-injection locking light source, where the non-injection locking light source may be a laser or a light emitting diode, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
The coupler 20 is used for transmitting part of light emitted by the light source 1 to the filter 21 so as to realize online detection of the light source 1; the filter 21 is used for filtering the part of the light rays and transmitting the part of the light rays to the detector 22; the detector 22 is used for detecting the light intensity of the partial light and transmitting the detected light intensity value to the control module 23; the control module 23 is configured to determine whether the light source 1 drifts according to the detected light intensity value, and correct the light source 1 after determining that the light source 1 drifts.
In this embodiment, the bandwidth of the filter 21 is matched with the spectral line width of the light source 1, because when the light source 1 drifts, the spectral line width of the light source 1 exceeds the pass band range of the filter 21, and the light intensity value detected by the detector 22 changes. Therefore, it can be determined whether the light source 1 has a drift phenomenon according to the change of the light intensity value detected by the detector 22.
Specifically, the step of determining whether the light source 1 drifts according to the detected light intensity value by the control module 23 includes: and judging whether the light intensity value is within a preset threshold range, if so, not drifting of the light source 1 occurs, and if not, drifting of the light source 1 occurs.
Optionally, the detector 22 in this embodiment of the present invention is a single photon detector that records light intensity values in a count manner. In the normal working stage of the light source 1, the single photon detector transmits a detected count value corresponding to the light intensity value of part of the light source 1 to the control module 23, the control module 23 judges whether the count value is within a preset threshold range, if the count value is within the preset threshold range, the light source 1 is in a normal state, no drift occurs, the single photon detector continues to detect the light intensity value of the light source 1, the control module 23 continues to judge, if the count value is not within the preset threshold range, the light source 1 is indicated to have the drift, and the control module 23 controls the light source 1 to stop working and corrects the light source 1.
Specifically, the control module 23 corrects the light source 1, including performing temperature fine adjustment on the light source 1, or performing delay fine adjustment and temperature fine adjustment on the light source 1. Of course, the invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the control module 23 may also perform the calibration on the light source 1 in other manners.
Optionally, the control module 23 performs temperature fine-tuning on the light source 1, including:
the control module 23 adjusts the temperature of the light source 1, such as increasing or decreasing the temperature value of the light source 1, and determines whether the light source 1 has drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22; if the light source 1 has drift, the temperature of the light source 1 is continuously adjusted until the light source 1 is judged to have no drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the correction process is ended, and the control module 23 controls the light source 1 to enter a normal working state; if there is no drift, the calibration process is ended, and the control module 23 controls the light source 1 to enter a normal working state.
Further, before the temperature of the light source 1 is continuously adjusted, the light intensity value currently detected by the detector 22 may be compared with the light intensity value detected last time, if the light intensity value currently detected is larger, the temperature value is further increased or decreased based on the current temperature, and if the light intensity value currently detected is smaller, the temperature value is further decreased or increased based on the current temperature, that is, the reverse debugging temperature value. Alternatively, the temperature value is 0.1 ℃ per increment or decrement.
Optionally, the control module 23 performs delay fine tuning and temperature fine tuning on the light source 1, including:
the control module 23 adjusts the delay value of the light source 1 and determines whether there is any drift in the light source 1 according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22. If no drift exists, the correction process is ended. If drift exists, the temperature of the light source 1 is adjusted, if the drift of the light source 1 is still determined according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the delay value of the light source 1 is adjusted, the process is circulated until the drift of the light source 1 is determined not to occur according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the correction process is ended, and the control module 23 controls the light source 1 to enter a normal working state.
Specifically, the control module 23 adjusts the delay value of the light source 1, for example, increases or decreases the delay value of the light source 1, so that the delay values take values in a preset delay value range in sequence, if one of the delay values makes it possible to determine that the light source 1 does not drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the calibration process is ended, if after taking values in the preset delay value range in sequence, it is still determined that the light source 1 drifts according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the delay value corresponding to the light intensity threshold value closest to the light intensity value without drifting is selected as the delay value of the light source 1, and adjusts the temperature of the light source 1, for example, increases or decreases the temperature value of the light source 1, so that the temperature takes values in a preset temperature value range in sequence, if one of the temperature values makes it is determined that the light source 1 does not drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, the calibration, if the light source 1 is still determined to have drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, selecting the temperature value corresponding to the light intensity threshold value closest to the light intensity value without drift as the temperature of the light source 1, and adjusting the delay value of the light source 1 again, and repeating the steps until the light source 1 is determined not to have drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector 22, ending the correction process, and controlling the light source 1 to enter a normal working state by the control module 23.
Further, in the process of sequentially taking values within the preset delay value range, before taking values again, the light intensity value currently detected by the detector 22 may be compared with the light intensity value detected last time, if the light intensity value currently detected is larger, the delay value is further increased or decreased based on the current delay value, and if the light intensity value currently detected is smaller, the delay value is further decreased or increased based on the current delay value, that is, the delay value is debugged reversely. Alternatively, the delay value is 11ps per increment or decrement.
Similarly, in the process of sequentially taking values within the preset temperature value range, before taking values again, the current detected light intensity value of the detector 22 may be compared with the last detected light intensity value, if the current detected light intensity value is larger, the temperature value is further increased or decreased based on the current temperature, and if the current detected light intensity value is smaller, the temperature value is further decreased or increased based on the current temperature, that is, the reverse debugging temperature value. Alternatively, the temperature value is 0.1 ℃ per increment or decrement.
Optionally, the light source detection and correction system provided in the embodiment of the present invention further includes a power detection circuit;

In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the light source 1 is an injection-locked light source that includes a master laser 10, a slave laser 11, and a circulator 12.
A first end 1 of a circulator 12 is connected with a master laser 10, a second end 2 of the circulator 12 is connected with a slave laser 11, and a third end 3 of the circulator 12 is connected with a coupler 20; the circulator 12 is used for transmitting the laser light emitted by the master laser 10 into the slave laser 11 so as to perform injection locking on the laser light emitted by the slave laser 11; the circulator 12 is also used for transmitting the laser light emitted from the laser 11 to the coupler 20, so that the coupler 20 transmits part of the light of the laser light emitted from the laser 11 to the filter 21.
In this embodiment, when the light source 1 is an injection locking light source, the filter 21 is a narrow-band filter, and includes fiber grating type filters such as temperature compensation gratings and phase shift gratings or other narrow-band filter function devices, and is not limited to fiber optics devices, but may also be filter devices such as space optics.
Further, coupler 20 is preferably a single mode coupler, although the invention is not limited in this regard. The control module 23 may be an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) chip or an MCU (micro controller Unit).
The light source detection and correction system provided by the embodiment of the invention is a process of actively detecting parameters of an injection locking light source in a QKD system, judging the online state performance of the light source according to the dynamic detection result of the parameters and carrying out self-stabilization processing on the light source. The specific process of detecting and correcting the injection locking light source comprises the following steps:
the control module 23 controls the main laser 10 and the slave laser 11 to enter a working state, the circulator 12 transmits laser emitted from the main laser 10 to the slave laser 11, injection locking is performed on the laser emitted from the slave laser 11, then, the circulator 12 transmits the laser emitted from the laser 11 to the coupler 20, the coupler 20 transmits part of light rays in the laser emitted from the laser 11 to the filter 21, and transmits the other part of light rays to the QKD optical path main transmission link, so that online detection can be performed on an injection locking light source without affecting the normal working state of the QKD system;
part of light emitted from the laser 11 passes through the filter 21 and is detected by the detector 22, data detected by the detector 22, namely, a light intensity value, is detected by the power detection circuit and then is uploaded to the control module 23, and the control module 23 judges whether the injection locking light source drifts or loses lock. If drift or lock loss occurs, the control module 23 reports an exception to the QKD system, terminates the flow operation related to the QKD system, and enters an exception stage, and in the exception stage, the control module 23 adjusts a delay value of the master laser 10 or the slave laser 11, and adjusts a temperature value of the master laser 10 to correct the injection-locked light source. If no drift or loss of lock occurs, coupler 20, filter 21, detector 22 and control module 23 continue to detect the injection-locked light source.
The control module 23 may adjust the delay value of the master laser 10 or the slave laser 11, if the value is sequentially taken within the preset delay value range and the light intensity value is still not within the preset threshold value range, the control module 23 may select the delay value closest to the threshold value as the delay value of the master laser 10 or the slave laser 11, then the control module 23 may adjust the temperature value of the master laser 10, and similarly, if the value is sequentially taken within the preset temperature value range and the light intensity value is still not within the preset threshold value range, the control module 23 may select the temperature value closest to the threshold value as the temperature value of the master laser 10, and then the control module 23 may adjust the delay value of the master laser 10 or the slave laser 11 again, and so on, until the detected light intensity value is still within the preset threshold value range.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the optical injection locking technology is adopted to greatly improve the optical pulse performance of the slave laser 11, so as to realize narrow-line-width output of the slave laser 11, and after part of the light output from the slave laser 11 enters the monitoring link through the coupler 20, the detection of the light intensity value is realized by using the narrow-band filter 21 and the detector 22.
The light source detection and correction system provided by the invention can find the drift condition of the light source in time, correct the drift condition in time and greatly reduce the cycle and complexity of the drift correction of the light source.
An embodiment of the present invention further provides a light source detection and correction method, which is applied to the light source detection and correction system provided in the above embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, and includes:

Optionally, the detector is a single photon detector that records light intensity values in a counting manner. In the normal working stage of the light source, the single photon detector transmits a detected counting value corresponding to the light intensity value of part of light of the light source to the control module, the control module judges whether the counting value is within a preset threshold range, if the counting value is within the preset threshold range, the light source state is normal, no drift occurs, the single photon detector continues to detect the light intensity value of the light source, the control module continues to judge, if the counting value is not within the preset threshold range, the light source is drifted, the control module controls the light source to stop working, and the light source is corrected.

Specifically, the control module adjusts the temperature of the light source, such as increasing or decreasing the temperature value of the light source, and judges whether the light source has drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector; if the light source has drift, the temperature of the light source is continuously adjusted until the light source is judged to have no drift according to the light intensity value detected by the detector, the correction process is ended, and the control module controls the light source to enter a normal working state; if no drift exists, the correction process is ended, and the control module controls the light source to enter a normal working state.
Further, before the temperature of the light source is continuously adjusted, the light intensity value currently detected by the detector can be compared with the light intensity value detected last time, if the light intensity value currently detected is large, the temperature value is further increased or decreased on the basis of the current temperature, and if the light intensity value currently detected is small, the temperature value is further decreased or increased on the basis of the current temperature, namely the reverse debugging temperature value. Alternatively, the temperature value is 0.1 ℃ per increment or decrement.
Further, the fine tuning of the delay and the fine tuning of the temperature of the light source include:

Alternatively, the delay value is 11ps per increment or decrement.
Similarly, in the process of sequentially taking values within the preset temperature value range, before taking values again, the current detected light intensity value of the detector 22 may be compared with the last detected light intensity value, if the current detected light intensity value is larger, the temperature value is further increased or decreased based on the current temperature, and if the current detected light intensity value is smaller, the temperature value is further decreased or increased based on the current temperature, that is, the reverse debugging temperature value.
