Abstract

The invention relates to a single-mode continuous tunable optical filter which is mainly, technically characterized by comprising two transmission frequency Fabry-Perot tunable filters which are oppositely arranged back and forth, when the free spectral range of a first transmission frequency Fabry-Perot tunable filter is different from the intrinsic free spectral range of a second transmission frequency Fabry-Perot tunable filter at a certain interval, the transmission frequency tunable characteristic of the two transmission frequency Fabry-Perot tunable filters is utilized, so the tunable single-mode output is realized within a certain spectral range. The single-mode continuous tunable optical filter is reasonable in design, has the characteristics of no mechanical moving parts, stable and reliable performance, simple structure, low cost, small size, easiness for installation and production and the like, can meet the required small dimensions and reliable operation under extreme working environments, and can be widely applied in the fields of laser, optical test, optical fiber communication, biology, medical appliance, optical fiber sensor network and the like.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of optoelectronics, in particular to a single-mode continuous tunable optical filter. Background technique

[0002] The traditional optical Fabry-Perot etalon is a filter device made by using the principle of multi-beam interference. There are two main types: one is spaced by air, and the other is spaced by optical glass. Through the multi-beam interference effect of the Fabry-Perot cavity formed by the high reflectivity of the multi-layer dielectric film on the two light-passing surfaces, the multi-wavelength narrow-band filter output in a wide spectrum range can be realized, with stable performance and light-passing Due to the characteristics of large aperture, high optical power destruction threshold, simple structure and low cost, it is widely used in various lasers, optical measuring instruments and optical fiber communication devices. The frequency tuning of the transmitted light can also be achieved by using a...
