Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a Brillouin scattering laser device, which belongs to the technical field of photoelectron detection. Background technique [0002] At present, the technology of underwater target detection using Brillouin scattering has been practically applied. One of the biggest challenges in the development of this technology is the problem of detection distance. As we all know, the visible light window of fresh water or sea water is around 532nm, but even with this The wavelength of the laser is used as the laser wavelength for Brillouin scattering underwater detection. Due to the different water quality of the sea or lakes to be detected in practice, especially with the intensification of environmental pollution in recent years, there are generally poor water quality in various waters and poor water quality. The direct impact of laser underwater detection is that it seriously affects the transmission distance of the laser. Even in unpollu...

attached figure 1 And attached figure 2 All shown are cases of crossover setups with figure 1 In the process, two mirrors 102 and 103 are used to split a beam of laser light 101 into two beams, and then the separated two beams of laser light intersect in a stimulated Brillouin scattering medium 104 to generate stimulated Brillouin scattering light In this device, since one laser beam is divided into two beams, the frequency and polarization state of the two laser beams are exactly the same. The structure of the device is simple, but there are two problems. One problem is Since one laser beam is divided into two beams, the energy of the two laser beams must not be very high. The second problem is that the interaction distance between the two beams is very short due to the intersection method. , resulting in insufficient utilization of the laser beam

attached figure 2 It shows another way of intersecting setting. In order to improve the problem of dividing one laser beam into two beams and causing each energy to become smaller, it is proposed to use the beams emitted by two lasers 201 for intersecting incidence by means of a mirror 202 To the stimulated Brillouin scattering medium 203, each of them is an independent laser, so the energy will not become smaller. In order to ensure that the laser light emitted by the two lasers is exactly the same in nature to ensure the occurrence of stimulated amplification, The same seed laser needs to be injected into the two lasers respectively. In this way, although the system solves the problem of reducing the energy of the laser beam, the device still cannot solve the
