Problems solved by technology

This kind of self-organized multi-core fiber laser has extremely strict requirements on the consistency of each fiber core, and its in-phase output is guaranteed by the high consistency of the parameters of each fiber core. Reports on the use of such fibers for power fiber lasers; and passive phase-locking, the role of a certain core is random, which is easy to cause wavelength drift and power fluctuations, which is not conducive to application

Embodiment 1

[0034] Using multi-core fiber to make multi-core active phase-locked fiber laser. Option 1, as shown in Figure 1, coat the 11 end faces of the multi-core optical fiber with a high-reflection film. Which wavelength the high-reflection film has high reflection depends on the needs. High-reflection films with different reflection wavelengths can be coated; The 12-end end face of the core fiber is cut flat, and the core in the center of the multi-core fiber is written into the grating. The wavelength of the grating is selected according to the wavelength to be excited, and no grating is written on the remaining cores of the 12-end end face. The centermost fiber core constitutes the main resonant cavity.

Abstract

The present invention relates to an active phase locking multi-core coherent cladding pump high-power optical fiber laser and a preparation method thereof. Active medium is used to manufacture fiber cores; the fiber cores can be arranged according to a certain law or in any mode; the distance among the fiber cores can be long or short under the condition of satisfying synergistic coupling; the quantity of the fiber cores can be great or small according to needs. One end of a multi-core optical fiber is coated with a film, and the other end of the multi-core optical fiber is cut flat; only one of the fiber cores is written into a grating to form a main resonant cavity together with a coating surface, so as to play a role in active resonant phase locking without adding an extra phase locking feedback control system. The optical fiber laser can greatly lower the requirement of passive phase locking multi-core optical fiber lasers on multi-core optical fiber consistency, simplify the requirements of the multi-core optical fiber on fabrication process, and simplify the complex feedback control system of the prior active phase locking optical fiber laser. The optical fiber laser is also characterized in little influence from environment, compact structure, easy implementation, etc.
