Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an optical parametric oscillator, in particular to an optical parametric oscillator for outputting broadband and topology load tunable Laguerre Gaussian beams.
Background
Laguerre Gaussian (LG) modes are a set of intrinsic solutions of paraxial approximation wave equations in a cylindrical coordinate system, and different Laguerre Gaussian modes are marked by an angular index l and a radial index p and are used for solving the problem that the Laguerre Gaussian modes are not matched with the angular index l
And (4) showing. When l, p is 0, the laguerre gaussian beam is degraded to a fundamental mode gaussian beam; when l is not equal to 0, each photon in the Laguerre Gaussian beam carries orbital angular momentum with the magnitude of
The azimuthal exponent l is also known as the topological charge number. The Laguerre Gaussian beam carrying the orbital angular momentum has wide application in the fields of optical control, optical precision measurement, optical communication, super-resolution imaging, quantum information processing and the like. The high-purity Laguerre Gaussian beam can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio of optical precision measurement, the resolution of super-resolution imaging, the coupling efficiency of an orbital angular momentum optical chip and the like. Therefore, for general purposes in the field, a high-quality Laguerre Gaussian beam light source with integrated functions is necessary.
The optical parametric oscillator relies on a quasi-phase matching mechanism to convert a frequency omega by a parametric down-conversion process1The pumping light photon is converted into the frequency omega2Signal light photon of and frequency omega3Of idler photons of, wherein ω1＝ω2+ω3And the wavelength of the output signal light and the idler frequency light can be adjusted by changing the phase matching condition, so that the method is widely applied to the generation of broadband light sources. The optical parametric oscillation system is combined with the generation of the Laguerre Gaussian beam, so that the broadband Laguerre Gaussian beam light source can be obtained.
Currently, the generation techniques for broadband laguerre gaussian beams can be divided into two categories: one type is to output a broadband fundamental mode Gaussian beam by using a common optical parametric oscillator, and then convert the Gaussian beam into a Laguerre Gaussian beam by using a mode conversion device outside a resonant cavity, wherein the mode conversion device generally comprises a vector vortex wave plate, a fork-shaped grating, a spiral phase plate, a spatial light modulator and the like. Such methods typically produce laguerre gaussian beams with low modal purity and inadequate system integration. In the second method, a laguerre gaussian beam can be directly output by a resonant cavity, the mode purity of the output beam is improved by using the mode selection effect of the resonant cavity, for example, a beam carrying orbital angular momentum is used as a pumping light [ Controlled switching angular momentum in an optical parametric oscillator ], because the orbital angular momentum is conserved in the conversion process under a parameter, the generated parametric light carries the orbital angular momentum, the laguerre gaussian mode can be directly output by the interaction with the resonant cavity, but the optical power density of the annular pumping beam carrying the orbital angular momentum is low, so that the frequency conversion efficiency is not high; in addition, a gaussian beam pump is adopted, and a mode conversion device is added into a resonant cavity to realize output of a laguerre gaussian beam, for example [ a laser for outputting a 1064nm tunable laguerre gaussian beam ], but in the scheme, output of a single-wavelength laguerre gaussian beam is only realized, and the loss in the resonant cavity is increased while the output mode purity is improved by using small-hole mode selection, and the efficiency improvement is needed.

so as to ensure that the resonant cavity can stably start oscillation. In order to enable circularly polarized light to enter a vector vortex wave plate to obtain a spiral phase, a quarter wave plate is introduced into the resonant cavity for polarization conversion, and meanwhile, in order to meet the polarization reversibility condition of the resonant cavity, a Faraday rotator with an optical rotation angle of 45 degrees needs to be introduced and is arranged between the periodically polarized lithium niobate crystal and the quarter wave plate, so that the polarization state is recovered after a light beam makes a round trip in the resonant cavity.
