Abstract

The invention discloses a device for restraining stimulated Brillouin scattering of optical fibers for a single-frequency linear polarization optical fiber amplifier. The device is a metal barrel formed by jointing two ends of a first metal semi-barrel and a second metal semi-barrel by a metal fixed block, wherein a single-thread groove for embedding the active optical fibers of the single-frequency linear polarization optical fiber amplifier is etched in the inner wall of the metal barrel from top down,; the second metal semi-barrel is provided with a water cooling device or a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) temperature control module; and the active optical fibers are led in and out through two inclined through holes on the barrel wall of the metal barrel. The device can effectively restrain the stimulated Brillouin scattering of the single-frequency linear polarization optical fiber amplifier in a laser amplifying process, so that the high-power and high-beam-quality output of the single-frequency linear polarization optical fiber amplifier can be realized; meanwhile, the device has a simple and compact structure, is convenient to integrate and can be applied in a plurality of high-power single-frequency laser fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber, in particular to a device for suppressing optical fiber stimulated Brillouin scattering for a single-frequency linearly polarized optical fiber amplifier. Background technique [0002] Single-frequency, linearly polarized, and high-power lasers are widely used in lidar, spectroscopy, and precision measurement. With the emergence of cladding pumping technology, single-frequency optical fibers with double-clad polarization-maintaining fibers as the amplification medium The output power and conversion efficiency of the amplifier are greatly improved. However, the power amplification of single-frequency fiber amplifiers is limited by nonlinear effects, and the most important nonlinear effect is stimulated Brillouin scattering. The stimulated Brillouin scattering threshold of a single-frequency fiber amplifier is affected by factors such as the core diameter and length of the fiber, and the temperature gradient in...
