Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of trivalent ytterbium ion doped lutetium-aluminum garnet transparent ceramic optical fibers. The method comprises the following steps: (1) carrying out ball milling on ytterbium doped yttrium-aluminum garnet powder prepared by coprecipitation, a sintering auxiliary agent, a surfactant and triple distilled water, and mixing to prepare water-based slurry; (2) preparing a gypsum micro-hole mold; (3) injecting the water-based slurry into the gypsum micro-hole mold, de-molding and drying to obtain a ceramic green body; (4) carrying out calcining treatment on the ceramic green body to obtain calcined fibers; (5) carrying out vacuum sintering on the calcined fibers; and (6) finally, annealing to obtain the Yb<3+> doped transparent lutetium-aluminum garnet transparent ceramic optical fibers. The transparent ceramic optical fibers prepared by adopting the preparation method have the relatively low optical loss and can be used for -1 micron near-infrared laser output and -1 micron near-infrared optical signal amplification. In the method, a slurry injection molding process is adopted; and compared with the prior art, for the method, the steps are simple and the cost is relatively low. A powder calcining process is adopted, the working temperature is relatively low and the energy loss is relatively small.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a transparent ceramic optical fiber, in particular to a trivalent ytterbium ion doped lutetium aluminum garnet (Yb 3+ :LuAG) preparation method of transparent ceramic optical fiber. Background technique [0002] Fiber gain media is the perfect solution for the development of solid-state lasers towards smaller size, lighter weight, higher efficiency and more reliability. At present, the more mature optical fiber gain matrix is ​​silica optical fiber, and its output power has exceeded 3kW at present. However, for higher power applications, silica fibers are not up to the task due to the low thermal conductivity of silica. Doped yttrium aluminum garnet is an excellent laser gain matrix material. Compared with the thermal conductivity of quartz glass of 1.37W / mK, its thermal conductivity is as high as ~11W / mK. A single doped fiber YAG can produce and higher power without distortion of beam quality or damage to gain material due ...
