Generally, the circular polarization polarizer is composed of discrete components, so that the whole optical network has the defects of large volume, difficulty in integration, large insertion loss, unstable work and the like. With the research and application requirements, higher requirements are put forward on the functions and performances of the circularly polarized light modulation device. In recent years, the optical fiber type circular polarizer becomes a research hotspot, and related performance parameters of the optical fiber type circular polarizer are rapidly optimized.

However, the current circular polarizer has narrow bandwidth (several nanometers) and uneven power, which not only weakens the spectrum efficiency, communication capacity, detection accuracy and applicability of a communication system, but also has the problem that the working index/performance of the device is sharply reduced due to the working waveband shift generated along with the environmental change. These factors limit the popularity and application of circular polarizers in all-optical communication, sensing, and modulation systems. Meanwhile, the emergence of the optical fiber type circular polarizer brings hope for the design of a high-performance circular polarizer, and more importantly, provides possibility for realizing the transmission of circularly polarized light in an all-fiber system. Therefore, research on optical fiber type circular polarizers has attracted a great deal of attention from many well-known colleges and research institutions at home and abroad.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to specific examples, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
Example one
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for manufacturing an ultra-wideband flat all-fiber circular polarizer according to an embodiment of the present invention. The manufacturing method of the ultra-wideband flat all-fiber circular polarizer comprises the following steps:
s1, according to the double helix chiral long period fiber grating, the core fundamental mode LP01Coupled to higher-order cladding modes LP0nAnd calculating the grating period range of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating working at the dispersion turning point under the satisfied first phase matching condition.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a structural diagram of a right-handed double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating according to an embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 2, a polarization maintaining fiber (for example, a panda-type polarization maintaining fiber) in a molten state is twisted at a high speed, and a core forms a spiral path after the twisting, thereby forming a double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating.
It should be noted that the optical fiber shown in fig. 2 is only a schematic diagram, the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating includes a fiber core, a stress region and a cladding, the fiber core is located in the center of the cladding, the stress region is located inside the cladding, the stress region forms a double-helix path, and the surface of the cladding forms an uneven shape.
In this embodiment, the double-spiral chiral long-period fiber grating may be a right-handed double-spiral chiral long-period fiber grating or a left-handed double-spiral chiral long-period fiber grating.
Unlike conventional long-period fiber gratings, the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating couples the core fundamental mode LP01Coupled to higher-order cladding modes LP0nAbove, it satisfies the first phase matching condition:
λres=(neff,01-neff,0n)Λ (1)
wherein λ isresDenotes the resonance wavelength, Λ denotes the grating period, neff,01Represents LP01Effective refractive index of fundamental core mode, neff,0nRepresents LP0nThe effective refractive index of the cladding modes.
Further, the resonant cladding mode of each order of the double helix chiral long period fiber grating can be calculated according to the first phase matching condition of the formula (1). In this embodiment, the resonant cladding mode of the first 14 orders (i.e., m is 2 to 15) of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating is calculated according to the first phase matching condition of the formula (1), and for convenience, the resonant cladding mode is given as a phase matching curve, please refer to fig. 3 a-3 b, and fig. 3 a-3 b are schematic diagrams of the phase matching curve of the right-handed double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating according to the embodiment of the present invention, where fig. 3a is a phase matching curve of a cladding mode with a cladding mode order of m is 2 to 8, fig. 3b is a phase matching curve of a cladding mode with a cladding mode order of m is 9 to 15, and a black dot in the diagram indicates a dispersion turning point of the phase matching curve.
As can be seen from fig. 3a, the slope of each curve is always positive for cladding modes with m-2 to 8. In fig. 3b, m is the cladding mode from 9 to 15, the slope of the curve changes from positive to negative, and there is a point where the slope is infinite, as shown by the black point in fig. 2b, which is called the dispersion turning point of the fiber grating. It is apparent that each dispersion inflection point corresponds to the maximum grating period of each resonant cladding mode. For the cladding mode with m being more than or equal to 9, when the grating period is less than the grating period at the dispersion turning point, the slope of the curve is changed from positive to negative, and one grating period corresponds to the resonant wavelengths at two different positions, namely, the double resonance phenomenon is generated. Then, along with the increase of the grating period, the two different resonant wavelength positions are simultaneously close to the resonant wavelength position at the dispersion turning point, and are superposed to one point when the grating period is increased to the grating period at the dispersion turning point, namely the resonant wavelength position corresponding to the dispersion turning point. In this case, the resonance peak at the dispersion inflection point has a wider bandwidth than that at the single resonance due to the mutual superposition of the dual resonance peaks.
Further, the bandwidth of the resonance peak of the fiber grating can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003492543500000091
in the formula (2), Δ λ3dB3-dB bandwidth representing the resonant peak of the fiber grating, L grating length, Δ ngRepresenting the group index difference between the core and the cladding.
As can be seen from the formula (2), the closer the resonance wavelength is to the dispersion inflection point of the fiber grating, the group refractive index difference Δ n between the core and the claddinggThe smaller and thus the wider the resonance peak bandwidth of the fiber grating.
Therefore, by designing the grating parameters of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating, the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating works at the dispersion turning point of the high-radial-order cladding mode, and can effectively generate an ultra-wideband circular polarization mode. In the embodiment, the grating period range of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating is set, so that the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating can work near a dispersion turning point; in other words, when the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating works near the dispersion turning point, a wider resonance peak bandwidth can be realized, and therefore, a period in a certain range at two sides of a grating period corresponding to the dispersion turning point is taken as a grating period range. Specifically, the grating period range can be set according to actual requirements, the larger the period range is, the wider the working bandwidth is, but the farther the period is from the dispersion turning point, the weaker the coupling strength is, for example, the period at the dispersion turning point of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating is 160 μm, 159 to 161 μm can be selected as the grating period range, and 3dB bandwidth to 200nm can be obtained. And the grating period range can determine the twisting speed of the melting and twisting of the polarization maintaining fiber.
Further, according to the first phase matching condition of the equation (1), taking a right-handed double-helix chiral long period fiber grating as an example, the core mode (LP) thereof is selected01) And cladding mode (LP)0,11) Please refer to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a right-handed circularly polarized light transmission spectrum of a right-handed double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating operating at a dispersion turning point according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a fiber core model (LP) of the right-handed double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating01) Respectively associated with cladding modes (LP)02,LP0,11) Coupling is performed, wherein, cladding mode LP02Not operating at the point of dispersion transition, cladding mode LP0,11Operating at the dispersion break-over point. As can be seen in fig. 4, the modal coupling bandwidth is significantly increased for operation at the dispersion break-over point compared to the modal coupling not operating at the dispersion break-over point. Therefore, the broadband mode coupling can be realized based on the dispersion turning characteristic of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating.
And S2, introducing chirp into the grating period range to obtain the double-helix chirp type chiral long-period fiber grating.
Generally, to achieve broadband transmission, chirped long period fiber gratings need to have a substantial chirp period variation to achieve a wide range of wavelength resonances. In this case, the grating length needs to be increased to increase the effective coupling length at different resonance wavelength positions in the spectrum; for example, a chirp period variation of 41 μm is required to achieve a wideband transmission of 3-dB bandwidth 100nm, and a chirp grating length of up to 41.5cm is required. The grating length is too large, so that inconvenience is caused in practical application, packaging becomes a great challenge due to the too long grating length, and in addition, the spectrum quality is reduced due to the fact that the longer grating is more easily affected by external factors, and the application is very unfavorable. In addition, for the chiral long period fiber grating working at the non-dispersion turning point, the mode coupling of the core fundamental mode and a plurality of cladding modes occurs in a wide resonance wavelength range, which greatly affects the conversion efficiency and the mode purity of the circular polarization mode, so that the spectral performance of the fiber grating is limited.
Specifically, the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating in step S1 realizes ultra-wideband circular polarization mode conversion with a 3-dB bandwidth of about 190nm, however, at such a bandwidth, the extinction ratio of the spectral resonance peak is not flat, i.e., there is a large difference between the extinction ratios at different wavelength positions within the broadband operating wavelength, as shown in fig. 4, the extinction ratio can reach 60dB at the center of the resonance peak and only 3dB at the edge. Since the extinction ratio of the resonance peak has a great influence on the mode purity of the converted circular polarization mode, chirp is introduced to the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating operating at the dispersion turning point in step S1 in order to obtain an ultra-wideband and flat circularly polarized light beam.
Referring to fig. 5 a-5 b, fig. 5 a-5 b are schematic structural diagrams of two types of double-spiral chirped chiral long-period fiber gratings according to an embodiment of the present invention, where fig. 5a is a right-handed double-spiral chirped chiral long-period fiber grating, and fig. 5b is a left-handed double-spiral chirped chiral long-period fiber grating.
Specifically, after chirp is introduced to the period of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating, the grating period is no longer constant, but changes along the axial direction of the fiber, as shown in fig. 5a and 5 b. For the double-helix chirp type chiral long-period fiber grating with the length of L, the grating can be divided into M grating sections, and each grating section can be regarded as a double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating with uniform period; the length of each grating section is determined by the coupling strength of the grating section, the stronger the coupling strength is, the shorter the length of the grating section is, and the weaker the coupling strength is, the longer the length of the grating section is; each grating section works at the dispersion turning point, and the grating period of each grating section is located near the dispersion turning point of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating. The number of grating segments depends on different system accuracy requirements, for example, M may be taken to be 100.
Furthermore, by designing the grating parameters (including the grating period and the length of each grating section) of each grating section, namely the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating, the fiber grating works at the dispersion turning point of a high radial order cladding mode, and the ultra-wideband circular polarization mode coupling can be effectively generated.
S3, obtaining the grating period of each grating section in the double-helix chirped chiral long-period fiber grating according to the grating period range, wherein the grating period changes along with the position of the optical fiber axis.
Specifically, the period of each grating segment is:
Λ=Λ0+cz (3)
wherein Λ is0The initial period size of the chirp period is represented, z is the axial position of the optical fiber, the value of z ranges from 0 to L, c is delta lambda/L, c represents the chirp coefficient, and delta lambda represents the total period variation of the chirp grating.
It can be understood that the period of each grating segment is located near the dispersion turning point of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating, the grating period of the grating segment located at the center is equal to the period corresponding to the dispersion turning point of the double-helix chiral long-period fiber grating, the grating period of the grating segment located at the starting end is close to the smaller period in the range of the grating period, and the grating period of the grating segment located at the tail end is close to the larger period in the range of the grating period.
S4, establishing a target coupling equation under the interaction between a right-handed circularly polarized fiber core mode and a left-handed circularly polarized cladding mode in the double-helix chirped chiral long-period fiber grating in a local coordinate system.
