Abstract

The utility model relates to an end cap structure for reducing the entering of feedback light into optical fiber. The end cap structure comprises an end cap cylinder part and an end cap cone part, and is characterized in that the conical surface of the end cap cone part is provided with stepped lines, and the lines are zigzagged in shape when being observed from the side surface of the end cap. The end cap structure is in actual use, the stepped lines on the end cap break through the smooth interface between the conical surface and air, so that the feedback light transmitted to the interface cannot generate full reflection or the reflection of the feedback light can be seriously deviated via the conical surface, thereby achieving the aim of reducing the coupling of the feedback light into the optical fiber.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the utility model is described in further detail.
As shown in Figure 2, a kind ofly reduce the end cap structure that feedback light enters optical fiber, described end cap structure is comprised of end cap columnar part 1 and end cap conical section 2, it is characterized in that: stepped lines is made on the conical surface surface at end cap conical section 2, and lines is observed and is sawtooth lines 4 from end cap side.Described end cap is that the material by fused quartz is made, and output terminal is end cap columnar part 1, with optical fiber 3 links be end cap conical section 2; Most advanced and sophisticated facet 5 and the optical fiber 3 end face weldings of end cap conical section 2.The cross-sectional diameter of described end cap columnar part 1 is greater than laser from the spot diameter of end cap output.The most advanced and sophisticated facet of described end cap conical section 2 is greater than connected optical fiber 3 cladding diameters and adds both sides sawtooth depth of lines, and cone angle is greater than the angle of divergence that laser is propagated in end cap, guarantees that all laser exports from end cap Laser output end face.Conical surface zigzag line 4 direction densities of described end cap conical section 2 are large as much as possible, make each sawtooth sharp-pointed as far as possible.Requirement depth of lines can not be excessive, can not affect the forward-propagating of light in end cap.
Wherein end cap columnar part 1 diameter and the setting of end cap entire length are suitable, guarantee that all laser is from the outgoing of end cap output end face.End cap conical section 2 cone angles are greater than the laser beam divergent angle of injecting end cap from optical fiber.
The density of zigzag lines is limited by processing technology, and density is large as much as possible, makes each sawtooth more sharply better.The degree of depth of lines is not excessive, and the lines after processing can not hinder the propagation of forward laser beam in end cap, guarantees that forward laser is from the outgoing of end cap end face.
End cap end face output beam spot diameter D and end cap length L have following relation:
D = 2 L tan θ 2 + d
Wherein θ is the angle of divergence (full-shape) of light beam in end cap, and d is that laser is from the spot diameter of fiber end face outgoing.End cap actual diameter is greater than end cap end face output beam spot diameter D, guarantees that all Output of lasers go out to inject space from end cap output end face.Select suitable end cap length L to make D large as far as possible, reduce the power density of outgoing hot spot.
End cap conical section facet diameter S need to be greater than connected fibre cladding diameter Ф and add both sides sawtooth depth of lines h:
S>Ф+2h
End cap conical section cone angle > θ.
As Fig. 1, common end cap, when meeting with the feedback light of certain angle, due to the reflection of the cone conical surface, may be coupled into the optical fiber of connection.As shown in Figure 3, at the conical surface, add after zigzag lines, the feedback light that originally produces reflection on the cone conical surface cannot produce total reflection because interface angle changes, and has changed the reflection direction of feedback light, or by feedback light refraction place end cap, effectively reduced feedback light and entered optical fiber.
