Description

Structure for preventing optical fiber welding spot from overheating
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a fiber laser or fiber amplifier field specifically indicate a prevent overheated structure of optic fibre solder joint.
Background
The high-power laser has the characteristics of high energy, good beam quality, high conversion efficiency, low thermal effect and the like, and is widely applied to the fields of laser processing, medical care, military weapons, precision measurement and the like. With the rapid development of various application fields, new challenges are also provided for laser technology.
In the process of rapid development of high-power fiber lasers, the improvement of the light guide power of a single optical fiber also puts higher requirements on the fusion welding process among the optical fibers. In the process of welding optical fibers, the change of boundary conditions at the notch of the coating layer causes light waves to leak in a small area, and the heat effect caused by loss is increased along with the continuous increase of laser power. This loss becomes a factor in the problem of heating of the solder joints of high power fiber lasers. The optical fiber coating layer is generally composed of organic polymers such as acrylate or fluorine-doped acrylate, and is the lowest melting point part of the whole optical fiber. The coating may burn out when the temperature exceeds 130 c. In order to ensure that the optical fiber laser can work stably for a long time, the temperature of a coating layer is usually less than 80 ℃, especially the coating layer near a welding point, and light waves leak out of a cladding layer due to sudden change of a waveguide structure, so that local high temperature is easily caused and the coating layer is burnt. The optical fiber welding spot is commonly existed in the optical fiber laser and key devices, so the process for preventing the welding spot from overheating has important application value in the field of high-power lasers, and is one of the restriction factors for realizing higher-power laser output.
The following structures and methods are commonly used to prevent solder joints from overheating:
coating welding spots and cooling with water: the method can be used for welding spots of active and passive optical fibers and welding spots for transmitting signal light in a fiber core.
Suspension of welding spots: when the pumping light was transmitted at the covering, the optical fiber solder joint should not coat, changes the pumping light of constraint covering behind the coating for the solder joint is changeed and is generated heat, consequently, clean and unsettled with the solder joint, can effectively reduce the heat effect problem that the solder joint generated heat and brought.
The method has high requirement on environment cleanliness and is suitable for treating slightly-heated welding spots. For the welding spot with higher temperature, the treatment effect of the method is not ideal.
CN106094111A discloses a method for processing a fusion spliced optical fiber, which comprises: coating first coating glue with refractive index larger than that of cladding layers of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber on the surface of the first original optical fiber section and the surface of the second original optical fiber section respectively; and coating a second coating adhesive with the refractive index smaller than the refractive index of the cladding of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber on the surfaces of the first bare fiber section, the fusion point and the second bare fiber section. According to the method, the refractive index glue is coated on the cladding of the optical fiber, so that cladding light at the welding point is guided out of the optical fiber waveguide, the thermal deposition effect at the welding point is reduced, and the power load capacity of the welding point is improved. However, in the optical fiber fusion point processed by the method, since the cladding light at the fusion point leaks to the coating glue, the temperature of the coating glue is too high, and the coating glue wraps the optical fiber, so that the problem that the welding point is overheated under high power still cannot be avoided.
SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL
The utility model aims to overcome the not enough and defect of prior art, provide a prevent the overheated structure of optic fibre solder joint, can effectively solve the overheated problem of solder joint.
The utility model provides an optic fibre solder joint structure is used for weakening because waveguide structure sudden change leads to the mode field to mismatch the heat effect that arouses the loss to produce, prevents that solder joint optic fibre from being overheated. The bare fiber cladding with the coating layer stripped from two sides or one side of the optical fiber welding spot is subjected to layered texturing treatment, so that stray light of the cladding layer is leaked out of the optical fiber waveguide, and the optical fiber heating caused by coupling loss and other factors is weakened. The cladding of the bare fiber on two sides or one side of the optical fiber welding spot is provided with at least one layer, and the surface of each layer is provided with a textured structure. If the cladding of the bare fiber has a plurality of layers, the plurality of layers are distributed in a stepped manner as a whole. And selecting proper layering depth and length according to different types of optical fiber welding spots. When the cladding is processed properly, all stray light of the cladding leaks out of the optical fiber waveguide, and the problem of heating of welding spots is greatly improved, so that the emergence of a higher-power laser is promoted.
The layering depth of the bare fiber cladding is related to the selected processing method and processing time. According to different types of input and output optical fibers of welding spots, methods such as chemical corrosion, physical texturing and the like can be selected to destroy bare fiber cladding, so that cladding light leaks out of the optical fiber waveguide, and the problem of optical fiber heating caused by coupling loss and other factors is solved. The depth and length of each layer of the bare fiber cladding determine the light transmission performance and the bearing power of the welding spot. If the layering depth of the bare fiber cladding is too deep, effective transmission light can leak out of the optical fiber, so that the transmittance of a welding spot is influenced, and the light transmission performance is reduced. If the depth of each layer of the bare fiber cladding is too shallow, invalid light (transmission light with low coupling efficiency due to mode field mismatch) may not leak out of the optical fiber, so that a nearby coating layer generates heat, and the coating layer is more easily burned out with the increase of power, thereby hindering the development of a high-power laser.
In addition, the length of each layer of the bare fiber cladding affects the amount of light leakage. When the depth of each layer of the bare fiber cladding is proper, the length of each layer of the bare fiber cladding determines the optical and mechanical properties of the welding spot.
Temperature Q of each layered optical fiber welding spot outgoing end of bare fiber claddingoutAnd filtering out the power PdumpThe following relation is satisfied:
Qout=a/Pdump(1)
where a represents the filtering out coefficient.
Hairing length L and filtering power P of each layer of bare fiber claddingdumpThe following relation is satisfied:
Pdump=Pc*e-aL(2)
wherein P iscRepresenting the total power transmitted in the cladding and a the filtering out coefficient.
From the two formulas (1) and (2), on one hand, the longer the length of each layer of the bare fiber cladding, the more the ineffective light leakage, and the less the solder joint is heated, so that the solder joint can bear the light transmission with higher power. On the other hand, the lengths of all the layers of the bare fiber cladding are too long, welding spots are easy to break, and the mechanical performance cannot be effectively guaranteed. Therefore, the depth and length of the delamination should be selected appropriately for different fiber solder joints.
In structural design, if a non-layered bare fiber cladding structure is adopted around an optical fiber welding spot, in order to leak more cladding light, the depth of the bare fiber cladding is designed to be large, so that the optical fiber is easy to break, and the reliability of the structure is greatly reduced. The utility model discloses a naked fine covering of layering for the invalid light of covering leaks out fiber waveguide and does not influence the transmission of effective light in the waveguide. The layered structure can filter cladding light to the maximum extent, and can retain the toughness of the optical fiber, thereby ensuring the reliability of the structure. The structure of the utility model is suitable for single cladding and double cladding optical fiber solder joint of all wavelengths.

Stripping a circle of optical fiber coating layer 23 with the length of 1cm at the left end of a welding spot 1, wiping the left bare fiber cladding layer 22 clean by alcohol, etching the circle of cladding layer 22 corresponding to the layering 1(4) of the left bare fiber cladding layer of the welding spot by using laser, and processing the depth d of the layering 1 of the left bare fiber cladding layer of the welding spot1Accounting for 60% of the left fiber cladding radius (125 μm). This example did not have any texturing of the fiber to the right of the solder joint. Here, the length L of segment 1 of the bare fiber cladding on the left side of the solder joint1Is 8 mm. The shape of the gap of the textured structure on the surface of the split layer of the bare fiber cladding on the left side of the welding spot is a parabolic regular structure. And finally, cleaning the welding spot and the cladding optical fibers on two sides by using alcohol. In the figure, 21 is a fiber core on the left side of the welding point, 31 is a fiber core on the right side of the welding point, 32 is a fiber cladding on the right side of the welding point, and 33 is a fiber coating on the right side of the welding point. And (3) testing the temperature of the welding spot after cladding treatment, and similarly, applying 500W pulse laser to test that the temperature of the outlet end of the welding spot is 27 ℃. Therefore, the structure can obviously improve the heating problem of the welding spots. The treated welding spots are packaged by a black box body 5, so that the influence of the leaked light on the surrounding environment is avoided. The structure of the overheated welding spot with the same diameter and different NA is similar to the structure of FIG. 3, and the optical fiber cladding at one end with the small core diameter (small NA) is processed asymmetrically, so that the light transmitted from one end with the large core diameter (large NA) leaks out from the bare fiber cladding with the small core diameter (small NA), and the optical fiber is prevented from heating. It is noted here that the number of layers of the bare fiber cladding layer of 1 can also solve the problem of solder overheating for solder joints with insignificant heat generation.
It should be noted that the terms "left" and "right" herein merely represent directions, and are only used as examples and do not limit the present invention. The length, time and depth of the layering treatment of the bare fiber cladding are not limited by the above conditions.
