Embodiment Construction

[0025] In the structure of the present invention, if the output ratio of the central coupler is k, and the transmittance of the variable optical attenuator is h, after calculation, the transmittance of the improved NOLM is determined by the following formula:

[0026] T NOLM =h[1-2k(1-k)·(1+δ)] (3)

[0027] δ=2π(1-k-hk)n 2 |A in | 2 L / λ (4)

[0028] Among them: T NOLM Transmittance

[0029] δ nonlinear phase shift difference

[0030] From the comparison of (1) and (3), it can be seen that under the same central coupling ratio, input power and oscillation wavelength, the transmittance of the traditional NOLM is constant, while for the improved NOLM, its transmittance is at the center When the coupling ratio is constant, different transmittances can be obtained by changing the transmittance of the variable attenuator.

[0031] This patent asymmetrically introduces a variable optical attenuator into the NOLM of this fiber laser, so that the output coupling ratio of th...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fiber laser, in particular to a σ-cavity ultrashort pulse fiber laser with variable output rate. Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional solid-state lasers, fiber lasers have been extensively studied due to their small size, high light-to-light conversion efficiency, and high stability. Among them, especially the erbium-doped fiber lasers that can be used for communication and the ytterbium-doped fiber lasers used for laser processing have attracted people's attention. [0003] The form of the σ cavity in the erbium-doped fiber laser and the ytterbium-doped fiber laser is very common. In the σ-cavity fiber laser, the traditionally seen structure is a reflective semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) on one side, and a nonlinear amplification on the other end. Loop Mirror (NALM) or Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirror (NOLM). [0004] In a σ-cavity fiber laser using a nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM), w...
