Background
The semiconductor laser output by the optical fiber is used as a pumping source applied to the optical fiber laser and is a key device of the optical fiber laser. The semiconductor laser chip emits light, needs to be subjected to beam shaping through various lenses and is coupled to the optical fiber for output. The output optical fiber of the semiconductor laser is welded in the passive device, so that the pump light enters the gain optical fiber. At present, the power of the fiber laser is higher and higher, and the demand for the pump power is also higher and higher. The power and brightness of the single module of the pump source are greatly improved correspondingly.
However, the beam combiner corresponding to the semiconductor laser has a certain loss. For example, the loss of 5% of pump light of 100W is 5W; for 200W of pump light, the loss is 10W at 5%. If excessive losses occur in the passive device, it may heat up and even fail. This loss is related to the numerical aperture of the semiconductor laser, in addition to the performance of the beam combiner itself.
Under the condition of a certain fiber core diameter, the numerical aperture of the pumping source needs to be lower, so that excessive loss of the beam combiner can be avoided. At present, the numerical aperture of mainstream optical fibers is 0.22, and the mainstream optical fibers are divided into a single cladding and a double cladding. The refractive index of the coating layer of the single-clad optical fiber is high, and cladding light can leak to the coating layer; the double-clad optical fiber adopts a coating layer with low refractive index, and partial light with the numerical aperture larger than 0.22 is transmitted in the cladding. If the numerical aperture of the pump source is 0.18, then if there is a small deviation in the coupling, light with a numerical aperture between 0.18 and 0.22 will be transmitted in the core, stressing the combiner.
