Abstract

The invention discloses an all-fiber pulse laser utilizing cross modulation of resonant cavities, and belongs to the fields of laser technologies and nonlinear optics. The all-fiber pulse laser mainly comprises a pumping source (1), a fiber combiner (2), a wavelength division multiplexer (2'), a first gain fiber (3), a second gain fiber (4), reflection type fiber Bragg gratings (5)(6)(7)(8), an optical isolator (9), a total reflector (0), a circulator (10), a filter (11) and an optical fiber coupler (12). According to the all-fiber pulse laser, an optical fiber doped with a rare earth element is taken as a gain medium and a saturable absorber and is of an all-fiber structure, and has the characteristics of high stability, high power, high energy and high efficiency. The all-fiber pulse laser is different from acousto-optic, electro-optic, semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM) and graphene (Graphene) Q modulation and mode-locking techniques, pulse modulation is directly carried out by utilizing the gain fiber, so that the all-fiber pulse laser is simple in design, compact in structure and cost-saving, and meanwhile, through the dual-cavity structural design utilizing the cross modulation effect of the resonant cavities, stability of system output is effectively improved.
