Technical field
The utility model belongs to fiber laser technology field, be related to one kind in high power Raman Fiber Amplifier simultaneously Inhibit the Optical Maser System of Higher-order Raman using fundamental signal gain and the gain of high-order mode Higher-order Raman.
Background technique
Raman Fiber Amplifier generates laser gain using the stimulated raman scattering in optical fiber, does not have to pumping wavelength Limitation, and do not influenced by gain saturatiuon, amplified spontaneous emission and photon darkening effect etc., in optic communication, supercontinuum generation And the key areas extensive application such as the acquisition of special wave band light source, medical treatment.Have benefited from the development of high brightness pump technology, Raman Fiber amplifier has been realized in the output of multikilowatt continuous laser.Currently, the limitation further power ascension of Raman Fiber Amplifier Principal element generated from Higher-order Raman, i.e. the corresponding single order stokes light of signal light.This is because working as signal wavelength When laser power reaches the Threshold pumped power of Higher-order Raman, power is converted to high-order as pump light and is drawn by signal wavelength laser Graceful wavelength causes output power stagflation even to decline.
Currently, the technology in terms of inhibiting stimulated Raman scattering is broadly divided into three kinds:
One is use gain fibre with wavelength selectivity itself, such as W-type fiber, but this fibre-optical drawing work Skill is complicated, at high cost, and transmission loss is big (λ=1 μm~7.5dB/km@), and all optical fibre structure relatively difficult to achieve.
Second is using spectrum filtering out property optical device, such as space structure low pass filter, long-period gratings and inclination Core mode is coupled to 45 degree of cladding mode, polarization maintaining optical fibre dislocation welding technologies etc. by grating.It has the disadvantage that space structure There are coupling losses for low pass filter, and are not all optical fibre structures, and system stability is lower.Long-period gratings and oblique raster mesh Before be served only for single injection seeded, rejection ability is limited.45 degree of dislocation welding technologies of polarization maintaining optical fibre are only applicable to linear polarization Raman Optical fiber laser.
The third is cascaded pump hybrid gain, is used as kind by the signal light and Raman light that inject model identical simultaneously Son, but cannot not only inhibit the generation even promoted Qian to stimulated Raman scattering to stimulated Raman scattering after can only inhibiting.
