Description

Automatic debugging device of electric polarization controller
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the technical field of the polarization controller debugging, specifically be an automatic debugging device of electric polarization controller.
Background
Polarization Controller (PC): refers to a device that can convert any input polarization state to any desired output polarization state; the polarization controller is widely applied to coherent optical fiber communication systems and other coherent measurement systems in the field of quantum communication. An Electric Polarization Controller (EPC) is an optical fiber extrusion type polarization controller, is an important one in the polarization controller, mainly extrudes an optical fiber through a thrust force which is deformed after piezoelectric ceramic PZT is electrified, generates a stress birefringence effect to change a polarization state, and has the advantages of simple structure and quick response time.
When the devices of the EPC are assembled, they must be debugged to be ready for use. As shown in fig. 1, the conventional EPC debugging apparatus operates according to the following principle: the method comprises the steps of finding out linear polarized light by adjusting a manual polarization controller, then outputting the linear polarized light to an EPC to be tested, outputting an EPC waveform, and judging the EPC to be qualified when the EPC waveform meets requirements. The connection relationship is as follows: the laser is used as a light source and is sequentially connected with the manual polarization controller, the EPC to be debugged, the polarization beam splitter PBS and the optical power meter to form an optical path, and then the EPC to be debugged is connected with a power supply. The debugging process is as follows: the method comprises the steps that a laser is opened to emit light to a manual polarization controller, then an operator manually adjusts the polarization controller, 3 optical fibers surround a shaft on the manual polarization controller, the three optical fiber shafts are required to be randomly rotated and adjusted until a maximum light intensity value is found and manually recorded, the three optical fiber shafts are randomly rotated and adjusted until a minimum light intensity value is found, a light intensity change value is observed, when the light intensity change value difference is larger than 30dBm, the manual polarization controller is considered to adjust the light emitted by a light source into linearly polarized light, then the waveform of an EPC is manually generated, the waveform of the EPC is manually generated, namely, the power of the EPC to be debugged is manually adjusted, the polarization state of the incident linearly polarized light is modulated through manually adjusting a voltage value loaded on the EPC to be debugged, and accordingly transmitted light power is changed to generate a waveform, namely, the light power. In order to ensure that the EPC can modulate the polarized light to be distributed on the whole bonding ball, the waveform is required to satisfy more than two periods or the half-wave voltage is less than one fourth of the adjustable maximum voltage value in the adjustable voltage range. As an embodiment, when the voltage adjustment range is 0-100V, the corresponding requirement half-wave voltage is less than 25V, and if the fluctuation period of the waveform is greater than 2 (the half-wave voltage is less than 25V), and the contrast is greater than 20dB, it indicates that the EPC is qualified for debugging, that is, the condition can satisfy that the polarized light is distributed over the entire bonding ball, that is, the polarized light can be adjusted to any direction through the EPC. If the light intensity variation value difference is less than 30dBm, the compaction value and the assembly process of EPC piezoelectric ceramics to be debugged need to be checked again, then the maximum light intensity value and the minimum light intensity value of the manual polarization controller are readjusted, if the light intensity variation value difference is more than 30dBm, the manual polarization controller is considered to regulate light emitted by the light source into linearly polarized light, then the waveform of the EPC is generated manually, and if the fluctuation period of the waveform is more than 2 or the half-wave voltage is less than 25V, and the contrast is more than 20dB, the EPC is debugged to be qualified. The light intensity variation value difference is actually a difference value of the light intensities of two orthogonal linearly polarized lights after the background is deducted, and the light intensity variation value difference is not necessarily larger than 30dBm, different threshold values of the light intensity variation value difference can be set for different systems, and the fact that the set light intensity variation value difference is reached indicates that the manual polarization controller adjusts the light emitted by the light source into an ideal linearly polarized light.
The working procedures of the conventional EPC debugging technical scheme are relatively complicated, the debugging process is manual adjustment, and particularly the requirement on operators is high in the process of adjusting the light intensity difference of a manual polarization controller; meanwhile, due to the instability of the optical fiber, the uncertainty of the maximum value and the minimum value of the manual debugging light intensity is large, the operation wastes time, and the efficiency is low; in addition, the manual polarization controller, the light source plate and the optical power meter are independent devices without fixing devices, and each device needs to be supplied with power independently, so that the occupied area is large.

The first light intensity measuring module and the second light intensity measuring module measure the entering linear polarized light, and upload light intensity values to the ARM core board after respectively recording measured data.
The semiconductor laser module, the high-voltage delay circuit, the first light intensity measuring module and the second light intensity measuring module are connected to the ARM core board. The ARM core board is connected to a computer, uploads data to the computer and receives instructions of the computer. The ARM core board is used for recording and feeding back light intensity values of the first light intensity measuring module and the second light intensity measuring module and voltage values of the high-voltage delay circuit to a computer, the high-voltage delay circuit is controlled according to light intensity difference values, when the difference values are smaller than 30dBm, the high-voltage delay circuit is controlled to input stepping voltage for the tested electric polarization controller, when the difference values are larger than 30dBm, the high-voltage delay circuit is controlled to input stepping voltage for a stepping motor of an EPC to be tested, and constant voltage is input for the tested electric polarization controller.

As shown in fig. 3, after passing through a Polarization Beam Splitter (PBS), light debugged by the EPC to be debugged is split into two orthogonal beams perpendicular to each other, where H light and V light are used as representatives, and on the premise of ensuring that no additional jitter error is introduced, if only one light intensity measurement module (optical power meter) is used, the EPC to be debugged needs to be continuously adjusted to find the maximum value of the light intensity of the H or V path, and a mark is made, then the EPC to be debugged is adjusted to obtain the minimum value of the light intensity of the path, and a record is made, so that subsequent debugging is performed when the difference value reaches a preset value. This is not conducive to automated debugging and to accurate and intuitive contrast acquisition. In this embodiment, adopt two way measuring module simultaneous measurement PBS's two ways light intensity of emergent light, because PBS splits two kinds of orthogonal polarization, it is minimum to correspond V way light intensity when H way light intensity is the biggest promptly, can directly perceivedly obtain whether the power difference satisfies the default through the single debugging, simultaneously because two way measuring result are reverse, can combine each other and confirm the most ideal voltage initial point more fast more accurately, compare the mode of original single way, both can satisfy the demand of automatic test, can accurately obtain the measuring result again.
