Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber sensing, in particular to an optical fiber Brillouin laser that is applied in optical fiber laser gyroscopes and optical fiber temperature and stress sensing in two directions and dual wavelengths simultaneously lasing. Background technique [0002] Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) is an optical nonlinear process. When the incident pump light power reaches the threshold of SBS, the pump wave generates acoustic waves through electrostriction, resulting in a change in the refractive index of the medium. The periodic modulation forms a refractive index grating, and the Bragg diffraction of the grating makes most of the input pump light power turn into backscattered Stokes wave power with reduced frequency. During this process, the pump wave, backscattered Stokes Stokes waves and sound waves satisfy the conditions of energy conservation and momentum conservation, so that the frequency shift...
