Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the utility model is described further.
As shown in Figure 1, Figure 3, the crystal-type 2*2 polarization-maintaining coupler with isolation features comprises the first polarization-maintaining dual fiber collimator 11, the first light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 12, the second light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 13 and the second polarization-maintaining dual fiber collimator 14 setting gradually along light path; The first described light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 12 comprises optical axis two angle of wedge sheets 04,05 at 45 °, and is located at a magnetic opticity crystal 03 of 04,05 of two angle of wedge sheet; Equally, the second light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 13 comprises optical axis two angle of wedge sheets 06,07 at 45 °; And be located at a magnetic opticity crystal 03 of 06,07 of two angle of wedge sheet, the first concrete polarization-maintaining dual fiber collimator 11 and the second polarization-maintaining dual fiber collimator 14 have comprised that protecting inclined to one side double optical fiber head 01, lens 02, glass tube or metal tube forms, and stick with glue knot.
In addition, first, second polarization-maintaining dual fiber collimator can adopt two to protect inclined to one side single optical fiber calibrator combination replacement or adopt the combination of two the inclined to one side single optical fiber calibrator of guarantor+roof prisms to replace; In the case, two described stress axiss of protecting inclined to one side single optical fiber calibrator are mutually vertical.
As shown in the forward light path transmission structure schematic diagram of Fig. 2 the utility model light polarization light splitting barrier assembly, flashlight is from protecting partially two optical fiber S1 and S2 input, emergent light S3 and S4 enter the first light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 12 and close bundle, emergent light S5 enters the second light polarization light splitting barrier assembly 13 and carries out light splitting, be divided into the mutually perpendicular flashlight S6 of two bundle polarization states and S7, receive and enter the partially two optical fiber cable S8 of guarantor and S9.Wherein, angle of wedge sheet 05 optical axis and angle of wedge sheet 06 optical axis included angle are α, and α angular range is 90 ° of 0 < α <.By changing α, can realize the splitting ratio power stage that S8 is different from S9.For example, when α is 45 °, the output power of S8 and S9 is suitable.And when reverse transfer, as shown in Figure 4, due to the nonreciprocity of gyrotropi crystal, light beam two optical fiber that can not be coupled back, thereby there is the performance of reverse high-isolation.
Visible just like upper scheme, while manufacturing crystal-type guarantor polarisation coupling mechanism, without using oxyhydrogen flame or electric arc to carry out heat treated to optical fiber, technique is relatively simple, and production cost is lower.And by changing angle of wedge sheet 05 optical axis and angle of wedge sheet 06 optical axis included angle α, can change output splitting ratio, flexible adjustment is convenient, and the extinction ratio of photo-coupler is higher, and performance is more stable.Reverse transfer has single-stage or twin-stage isolation performance simultaneously, and isolation can be greater than 45dB.
