Multifunctional high-power polarization preserving fiber isolator

Abstract

The invention discloses a multifunctional high-power polarization preserving fiber isolator. The multifunctional high-power polarization preserving fiber isolator is structurally characterized in that a first fiber collimation system, a double-window 90-degree beam splitting polarizer, a Faraday optical rotator, a birefringent crystal and a second fiber collimation system are arranged in sequence along the input direction of light, wherein the second fiber collimation system is arranged reversely; the included angle between the optical axis of the double-window 90-degree beam splitting polarizer and the optical axis of the birefringent crystal is 45 degrees; a third fiber collimation system and a fourth fiber collimation system are respectively arranged at double-window emergent parts at the two sides of the double-window 90-degree beam splitting polarizer. The multifunctional high-power polarization preserving fiber isolator not only can handle high-power input and output, but also has the characteristics of good heat stability and multiple functions; and the increase of monitoring ports is beneficial to stability and safety of the system, thereby achieving good practical applicability.
