Description

Single-frequency Brillouin beam combination laser
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lasers, in particular to a single-frequency Brillouin beam combination laser.
Background
The high-power single-frequency laser system has wide application prospect in the fields of laser radar, material processing, coherent light communication, sensing and the like. In particular, high power, low noise, high beam quality single frequency laser sources have become a powerful tool for replacement in today's and future industrial and scientific research applications. Current methods to obtain high power single frequency laser systems are active power amplification (MOPA) and Coherent Beam Combining (CBC). Although the laser power can be theoretically improved to a high level through the MOPA technology, the working effect of the MOPA is limited due to the damage threshold limit of the optical fiber, the laser line width expansion caused by the internal scattering and nonlinear effect of the optical fiber and the wavefront phase distortion caused by the thermal effect of a gain medium, particularly in a single-frequency optical fiber amplifier, along with the improvement of the power, the optical fiber is easy to excite the phenomena of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) and the like, and the further improvement of the power is severely limited.
The CBC technique can coherently superimpose multiple laser beams, and maintain good beam quality while improving output power, but it requires strict phase control on multiple laser beams to achieve maximum amplification efficiency, and puts high requirements on the stability and phase control device of the entire laser system. In addition to the above method, the brillouin amplifier based on the SBS effect maintains beam quality and line width characteristics while ensuring laser power amplification due to the spontaneous energy transfer characteristic when the pump light is spatially overlapped with the Stokes light in the brillouin medium and the simple optical structure. The brillouin amplification technology based on non-collinear amplification can increase the amount of pump light within the damage threshold range of the brillouin medium to achieve higher power output.
The brillouin group beam laser of the space optical structure has obtained the output of high power and high beam quality, but still faces some difficult problems, such as the coupling and collimation of the pump light seriously affect the amplification efficiency with the increase of the quantity of the pump light, resulting in the instability of the output power; the heat effect and damage of the gain medium caused by the increase of the power of the pump light.
In order to achieve brillouin amplification, at least two brillouin media are required, one for producing Stokes light and the other for brillouin amplification, resulting in more complexity of the entire optical path system.
