Description

The two-stage tandem fibre optic Raman laser that is used for 1310 nano wavebands
Technical field
The utility model belongs to the optical fiber communication technology field, is specifically related to a kind of two-stage tandem fibre optic Raman laser of forming with the optical fiber circuit speculum that is used for 1310 nano wavebands.
Background technology
Continuous progress along with society, science and technology development, people are to the demand of message transmission, with the speed increment of index, especially in recent years, because computer communication, the fast development of transfer of data, only Internet (Internet) and regional network (Intranet), data transmission rate is annual to increase by 50%, expect the end of this century and rate of information transmission requirement the beginning of next century reaches Petabit/s, this needs the communication bandwidth of 200-400nm to support.Therefore the transfer rate of existing fiber communication system can not satisfy this demand far away.With erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology is the communication system of representative, for present computer network, optical cable television (CATV), communication network required information in zone still can satisfy, but in the face of the information requirement of expanding day by day and long distance, at a high speed, big volume transport, erbium-doped fiber amplifier also faces new difficulty, at first must enlarge existing transmission bandwidth, adopt broadband high density wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technology, this has brought difficulty for the production of components and parts.Spread bandwidth is a valid approach.And the effective bandwidth of present commercial erbium-doped fiber amplifier is 35nm (4TZH), though experimentally, carries out can being increased to about 70nm behind the gain-smoothing with long period fiber grating, and this does not also satisfy the bandwidth of actual needs.Another difficulty is the restriction that gain of EDFA is subjected to used pumping semiconductor laser power, and this makes long distance, and remote control pumping (remote pumping) system is restricted.Although can improve pump power by many pumping sources multiplex technique in principle, this has brought the complexity of system undoubtedly and has been difficult to realize.The Raman light amplification of optical fiber just has been found and constantly has been studied as far back as the mid-80, but fails practicality owing to there is not easy and enough high-power pumping source always.The Raman light gain amplifier of optical fiber derives from the nonlinear optical effect of Transmission Fibers itself, when the light of certain power transmits, follow stimulated Raman scattering, because the length long enough of optical fiber in optical fiber, the stokes light that is produced constantly amplifies, and promptly forms Raman gain.The Raman shift of common silica fiber is 460cm-1, the about 20TZH of gain bandwidth, and the Raman shift of mixing the phosphorus silica fiber can reach 1300cm-1, the Raman small signal gain of optical fiber can reach 40dB, and select suitable pump power, can avoid Rayleigh scattering and stimulated Brillouin scattering, reach the signal to noise ratio that is better than EDFA.The another one advantage is to need not to insert in system amplification medium, directly utilizes Transmission Fibers, can realize the broadband amplification in this low loss window of 1300-1600nm.This is especially suitable to the remote control pumping in long distance and the submarine fiber cable communication system.Simultaneously in conjunction with WDM technology, can be easy, the optical communication system of a large amount of 1300nm of having laid is realized the bandwidth expansion of upgrade expanding and 1500nm optical communication system effectively.This has very tempting prospect and huge economic for realizing following wideband transmit and the upgrading of existing system.The key technology that realizes fiber Raman amplifier practicability is a pump light source.Though semiconductor laser is optimal pump light source, because the restriction of its power output and wavelength, needs are compound with a plurality of devices, can only be used for 1.55 microns windows.The power output of tandem fibre optic Raman laser can reach greater than 2 watts, and the output wavelength scope can cover two optical fiber communication windows.Usually the cascaded optical fiber Raman laser adopts fiber grating as speculum, need scribe different fiber gratings to different wavelength, cost height, complex manufacturing technology.
