Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of pulse stretchers convenient for miniaturization setting.
Background technique
With the continuous development of industrial altra-fast fs laser, the amplification of ultrashort pulse is always scientific research circle in some time
The problem of having a headache very much.The energy and high-peak power that extremely short pulse is unfavorable for absorbing in amplification cut-off are highly vulnerable to breakage amplification
Optical component in device.By expanding the cross-sectional area of pulse, a part of problem can solve, but area expansion is brought
The reduction of energy density is less useful for absorbing the storage energy of gain media, and can amplify the size of spot diameter also because
The limit is reached for the difficulty of crystal growth.In order to amplify the laser pulse of ultrahigh peak power, Gerard Mourou and
Donna Strickland utility model chirped pulse amplification technique, and therefore obtain Nobel Prize in physics in 2018.
The limit that chirped pulse amplification technique enables ultra-intense laser to reach is by 1015W/cm2, 10 are risen to all the way25W/cm2More than.
Its central principle is exactly that stretcher is utilized to broaden pulse, and the peak power of pulse is reduced, and then carries out conventional amplification, then press
Narrow spaces are retracted, high peak power is obtained.One laser can obtain great peak power, be largely by
What the stretching capability of stretcher was determined.The optical fiber technology that early stage Mourou is used, which carries out broadening, can not obtain very big exhibition
Width amount.Routine is to utilize offner stretcher and fiber stretcher.Offner stretcher due to being able to bear biggish power, and
And matching can be adjusted so that parameter is own, it is frequently used in solid research-based ultrafast laser, and bulky, use environment
Harshness is unfavorable in the large-scale applications such as industry.
Up to the present there is no the optical-fiber-coupling type offner stretchers of the big broadening amount of miniaturization to be developed.Cause
How this, overcome above-mentioned defect, it has also become those skilled in the art's important topic urgently to be resolved.
