进一步地,光纤激光器具体包括在光路上依次连接的由多个第一泵浦源组成的第一泵浦阵列、第一泵浦合束器、第一光纤光栅、第一级有源光纤、第二光纤光栅、第二级有源光纤、第二泵浦合束器、模式剥离器和激光输出头,还包括与第二泵浦合束器的输入端光路连接的由多个第二泵浦源组成的第二泵浦阵列;其中,第一光纤光栅、第一级有源光纤、第二光纤光栅和第二级有源光纤组成所述光放大结构。
进一步地,模式剥离器是基于三包层光纤的模式剥离器,激光输出头是基于三包层光纤的激光输出头。
进一步地,每个第一泵浦源和第二泵浦源的输出泵浦光的NA值在0.1~0.22之间,输出功率在200~500W之间,输出波长具有915nm与975nm两个峰值。
进一步地,所述模式剥离器和激光输出头的光纤均采用大模场三包层无源光纤;
大模场三包层无源光纤包括纤芯、覆盖在纤芯外面的内包层、覆盖在内包 层外面的外包层和覆盖在外包层外面的涂覆层;大模场三包层无源光纤中,纤芯的横截面形状为正八边形,外包层的横截面形状为正十边形,内包层和涂覆层的横截面形状均为圆形。
进一步地,所述模式剥离器采用的大模场三包层无源光纤的外包层的每一个平面结构的裸光纤表面上刻蚀有至少一个波浪形刻蚀沟槽。
在本申请中,由于三包层有源光纤包括纤芯、覆盖在纤芯外面的内包层、覆盖在内包层外面的外包层和覆盖在外包层外面的涂覆层,内包层的横截面形状为正八边形。因此覆盖在内包层外面的外包层大幅度减少了泵浦光对于有机物涂覆层的损伤,涂覆层作为全反射界面损伤阈值超高,而且可以降低纯石英的折射率形成全反射的波导结构;三包层有源光纤的波导结构可以使得大部分泵浦光在外包层界面上进行反射,大幅度减少高功率密度的泵浦光在脆弱的有机物涂覆层界面上反射,从而大大的提高整个激光器光路的稳定性和可靠性。
又由于光放大结构,包括依次光连接的第一光纤光栅、第一级有源光纤、第二光纤光栅和第二级有源光纤;第一级有源光纤和第二级有源光纤均采用如上述的三包层有源光纤。因此降低了第一光纤光栅和第二光纤光栅承受激光的压力,又不同于传统的MOPA放大结构,简化了光路,还能够有效的降低回光放大。
又由于第一光纤光栅是采用基于三包层无源光纤的反射率范围为85%~99.5%之间的光纤光栅,第二光纤光栅是采用基于三包层无源光纤的反射率范围为8%~22%之间的光纤光栅;模式剥离器是基于三包层光纤的模式剥离器;激光输出头是基于三包层光纤的激光输出头。三包层光纤的外包层大幅度减少了泵浦光对于有机物涂覆层的损伤,涂覆层作为全反射界面损伤阈值超高,提高了光纤激光器的稳定性与可靠性。
又由于第一泵浦源和第二泵浦源的输出波长具有915nm与975nm两个峰值,因此充分的利用了有源光纤的吸收特性,兼顾了975nm的高吸收与915nm的宽吸收特点,可以有效的缩短使用有源光纤的长度而有保证良好的稳定性。
又由于模式剥离器和激光输出头的光纤均采用大模场三包层无源光纤,纤芯的横截面形状为正八边形,外包层的横截面形状为正十边形,纤芯的正八边形与常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的纤芯的圆形相比,可以消除纤芯的螺旋激光,使得光斑的能量分布更加均匀;外包层的正十边形与常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的包层的圆形相比,可以有效的避免包层中形成螺旋光,同时正十边形相对较多的平面也更有利于刻蚀泄漏波导,从而更好的剥除包层传输光而有效的净化光束取得更好的加工效果,亦可以更好的处理回光保护激光器;纤芯相比常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的纤芯,纤芯尺寸和NA值较大,可以有效的降低光功率密度,减少非线性效应提高激光器稳定性。
又由于模式剥离器采用的大模场三包层无源光纤的外包层的每一个平面结构的裸光纤表面上刻蚀有至少一个波浪形刻蚀沟槽,因此可以破坏平整的全反射平面从而剥除内包层中的光模式,避免了普通圆形结构难以定位、刻蚀连贯性差的问题,实现方式简单可靠易于实现自动化加工。

具体实施方式
为了使本申请的目的、技术方案及有益效果更加清楚明白,以下结合附图及实施例,对本申请进行进一步详细说明。应当理解,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用以解释本申请,并不用于限定本申请。
为了说明本申请所述的技术方案,下面通过具体实施例来进行说明。
请参阅图2,本申请实施例提供的三包层有源光纤包括纤芯20、覆盖在纤芯20外面的内包层21、覆盖在内包层21外面的外包层22和覆盖在外包层22外面的涂覆层23,内包层21的横截面形状为正八边形,纤芯20、外包层22和涂覆层23的横截面形状均为圆形,外包层22由掺杂少量氟或硼的石英基玻璃组成。
三包层有源光纤的纤芯的直径在10~50微米之间,内包层的直径在250~800微米之间,外包层的直径大于内包层的直径,外包层的直径在300~1000微米之间。

第一泵浦合束器2的激光输出光纤、第一光纤光栅3的光纤、第二光纤光栅5的光纤和第二泵浦合束器7的泵浦光输出光纤均采用图5所示的三包层无源光纤。第二泵浦合束器7的激光输出光纤为三包层无源光纤,纤芯直径在10~50微米之间,内包层直径在80~100微米之间,外包层直径在110~130微米之间。
在本申请实施例中,模式剥离器8和激光输出头9的光纤均采用图6所示的大模场三包层无源光纤。大模场三包层无源光纤包括纤芯27、覆盖在纤芯27外面的内包层28、覆盖在内包层28外面的外包层29和覆盖在外包层29外面的涂覆层30。
常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的纤芯的横截面形状为圆形,直径一般在35~150微米,NA值一般在0.06~0.12,包层的横截面形状为圆形,直径一般在 335~400微米;而本申请实施例采用的大模场三包层无源光纤中,纤芯27的横截面形状为正八边形,外包层29的横截面形状为正十边形,内包层28和涂覆层30的横截面形状均为圆形。
纤芯27的横截面正八边形中相对两直边的距离在50~200微米之间,NA值在0.18~0.24之间,内包层28的直径在70~240微米之间且比纤芯27的两直边的距离大20~40微米,外包层29的横截面正十边形中相对两直边的距离在360~460微米之间。纤芯27的正八边形与常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的纤芯的圆形相比,可以消除纤芯的螺旋激光,使得光斑的能量分布更加均匀;外包层29的正十边形与常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的包层的圆形相比,可以有效的避免包层中形成螺旋光,同时正十边形相对较多的平面也更有利于刻蚀泄漏波导,从而更好的剥除包层传输光而有效的净化光束取得更好的加工效果,亦可以更好的处理回光保护激光器;纤芯27相比常规的大模场双包层无源光纤的纤芯,纤芯尺寸和NA值较大,可以有效的降低光功率密度,减少非线性效应提高激光器稳定性。
请参阅图7,模式剥离器采用的大模场三包层无源光纤的外包层的每一个平面结构的裸光纤表面31上刻蚀有至少一个波浪形刻蚀沟槽32来破坏平整的全反射平面从而剥除内包层中的光模式;波浪形刻蚀沟槽32的形状可以是随机的。波浪形刻蚀沟槽32的深度在5~15微米之间,宽度在5~10微米之间,多个波浪形刻蚀沟槽32可以是均匀的布满在每一个裸光纤表面31上,波浪形刻蚀沟槽32的沟槽波谷与波峰差在10~30微米之间,相邻两个波浪形刻蚀沟槽32之间的距离在5~10微米之间。
假设以纤芯直径为25微米,包层直径为400微米的常规双包层有源光纤构建双端对称泵浦结构的1500W与2000W激光器系统,以纤芯直径为25微米, 内包层直径为360微米,外包层直径为420微米的三包层有源光纤构建双端对称泵浦结构的2000W激光器系统,设定常规双包层有源光纤和三包层有源光纤的吸收均为0.4dB/m,则沿着有源光纤长度方向有机物涂覆层所承受的泵浦光功率如图8所示。通过观测可以发现在基于常规双包层有源光纤构建的双端对称泵浦结构的1500W激光器系统,有源光纤的有机物涂覆层沿长度方向承受功率分布曲线33、在基于常规双包层有源光纤构建的双端对称泵浦结构的2000W激光器系统,有源光纤的有机物涂覆层沿长度方向承受功率分布曲线34、三包层有源光纤构建双端对称泵浦结构的2000W激光器系统,有源光纤的有机物涂覆层沿长度方向承受功率分布曲线35中,三包层有源光纤构建双端对称泵浦结构的2000W激光器系统的有机物涂覆层所承受的功率最低,可见其光路系统的稳定性可靠性最佳。
在本申请中,由于三包层有源光纤包括纤芯、覆盖在纤芯外面的内包层、覆盖在内包层外面的外包层和覆盖在外包层外面的涂覆层,内包层的横截面形状为正八边形。因此覆盖在内包层外面的外包层大幅度减少了泵浦光对于有机物涂覆层的损伤,涂覆层作为全反射界面损伤阈值超高,而且可以降低纯石英的折射率形成全反射的波导结构;三包层有源光纤的波导结构可以使得大部分泵浦光在外包层界面上进行反射,大幅度减少高功率密度的泵浦光在脆弱的有机物涂覆层界面上反射,从而大大的提高整个激光器光路的稳定性和可靠性。
又由于光放大结构,包括依次光连接的第一光纤光栅、第一级有源光纤、第二光纤光栅和第二级有源光纤;第一级有源光纤和第二级有源光纤均采用如上述的三包层有源光纤。因此降低了第一光纤光栅和第二光纤光栅承受激光的压力,又不同于传统的MOPA放大结构,简化了光路,还能够有效的降低回光放大。
