による論文を参照されたい。 Conventionally, nanosecond flash lamps and 1.06 μm Nd:YAG laser-pumped fiber Raman lasers have been used as high-power multi-wavelength optical pulse generators for measuring optical fibers. However, both of these conventional methods have the following drawbacks. That is, in the case of a nanosecond flash lamp, the spectral brightness is low and dark in any wavelength range, and in the case of a 1.06 μm Nd:YAG laser-pumped fiber Raman laser, the spectrum is almost continuous in the wavelength range longer than 1.3 μm. As a result, the spectral brightness also decreases. Regarding the conventional 1.06μm Nd:YAG laser pumped fiber Raman laser, for example, see IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, published in November 1978.

が低いなどという欠点がある。 For highly efficient generation of new wavelength light by the four-photon parametric mixing effect, it is generally necessary to satisfy a phase matching condition. For this reason, the above-mentioned Mr. Stolen et al. used a multimode fiber to achieve phase matching by utilizing modal dispersion. However, there are drawbacks such as the fact that it is extremely difficult to simultaneously satisfy phase matching based on such mode dispersion for multiple wavelengths, and that conversion efficiency is low due to the use of higher-order modes.

極めて便利である。 In contrast, in the present invention, a new wide wavelength range low dispersion single mode optical fiber is used as the nonlinear optical mixer, and the two laser light sources are operated in the low dispersion wavelength range of the optical fiber. Therefore, phase matching can be achieved in a single mode over a wide wavelength range, and as a result, highly efficient multi-wavelength light generation can be achieved. More specifically, the oscillation frequencies of laser light sources 1 and 2 are
Assuming W 1 and W 2 , light is generated at a large number of frequencies that satisfy the relationship W 3 , ±m=W 1 ±m (W 1 −W 2 ), m = 1, 2, 3, . . . . FIG. 2 schematically shows the spectral characteristics of the multi-wavelength light generated. Since the spectral width of each peak of the generated multi-wavelength light is about the same as that of the oscillation light of the laser light sources 1 and 2 used for excitation (usually 1 to 10 Å), the spectral brightness is extremely high. Furthermore, the frequency intervals of adjacent lights of the generated multi-wavelength light are determined by (W 1 - W 2 ) and are approximately equal intervals, which is extremely convenient in various spectroscopic applications.

使用するとよい。 A peak output of about 1 KW is sufficient for the high-power pulsed solid-state laser output used as the laser light source 1. The output of the laser light source 2 does not need to be so large if the oscillation wavelength of the laser light source 2 is on the longer wavelength side than the oscillation wavelength of the laser light source 2, and an output of about 10 mW is sufficient. In the nonlinear optical mixer, when high-power light from the laser light source 1 is present, a stimulated Raman gain is generated for the light from the laser light source 2, which increases the intensity necessary for nonlinear light mixing to occur. can be amplified sufficiently. In order to increase the stimulated Raman gain, it is recommended to use a wide wavelength range low dispersion single mode optical fiber whose core material contains a large amount of material with a large Raman scattering cross section such as GeO 2 or P 2 O 5 . .
