Problems solved by technology

This level of output power is generally difficult to use without amplification, which makes this type of seed source not directly applicable to low- and medium-power ultrafast laser applications such as film scribing.

Abstract

The invention discloses a laser with adjustable bandwidth and center wavelength, including a pump source, a pump protector, a pump beam combiner, a gain fiber, a first collimator, a first quarter-wave plate, The first half wave plate, the first polarization beam splitting cube, the Faraday rotator, the second half wave plate, the second polarization beam splitting cube, a transmission grating, a pair of mirrors whose reflection surfaces are perpendicular to each other, a mirror, and Second collimator. This case adopts a combined structure of nonlinear rotational polarization mode-locking and intracavity filtering effect. The structure is simple and easy to implement. The pair of corner mirrors can be translated relative to the direction of its incident light, and the second collimator can be translated relative to the vertical direction of its incident light. In this way, without inserting or replacing any other redundant components in the optical path, continuous tuning of the mode-locking bandwidth and the central wavelength can be respectively realized, and its application range is wide.

Description

[technical field] [0001] The invention relates to a laser with adjustable bandwidth and center wavelength. [Background technique] [0002] With the invention of Kerr mode-locking in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the application of femtosecond lasers spread rapidly in major research institutions around the world. The generation of femtosecond laser mainly depends on the mode-locking of the seed source, while the seed source of conventional commercial femtosecond laser systems is still mostly composed of solid-state components and laser crystals. The seed source developed by this solid-state laser technology is High temperature and humidity requirements, harsh environmental requirements, and high cost are not suitable for the popularization of the next generation of industrial ultrafast lasers. [0003] In recent years, the development of fiber mode-locking technology has greatly promoted the development of ultrafast fiber laser oscillators. Lasers based on rare earth eleme...
