Abstract

The invention relates to the technical fields of optical fiber technology, optical engineering and material engineering, in particular to a graphene-based Q-switched pulse fiber narrow line-width laser. A distributed feedback bragg grating DFB is fabricated on an erbium-doped fiber; the fabricated DFB region completely coats a graphene film; with graphene as a Q-switched material, namely a saturable absorber, of a DFB narrow line-width cavity, rapid adjustment of the loss of the graphene on a DFB composite cavity when the power rate of a pump light is greater than 5MHz is achieved; and high-frequency pulse laser output is generated. The all-fiber pulse narrow line-width laser for carrying out Q-switching on a fiber laser resonant cavity is achieved, has the advantages of being low in cost, simple in structure, good in stability, high in modulation rate, small in output line-width, easy to integrate and the like, and has a wide application prospect in the fields of optical fiber communication and optical fiber sensing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of optical fiber technology, optical engineering and material engineering, in particular to optical fiber communication, optical fiber sensing and optical fiber laser technology. Background technique [0002] As a very important optical device, fiber laser is widely used in industrial processing, medical treatment, communication, sensing and other fields due to its small size, low cost and many advantages of easy integration. Especially pulsed narrow linewidth fiber laser, due to its narrow linewidth, high signal-to-noise ratio, high efficiency, and remote control, makes its application in optical fiber communication, optical fiber sensing and other fields very important. [0003] In the field of sensing and communication, commonly used Q-switching methods include rotating mirror Q-switching, electro-optic Q-switching, acousto-optic Q-switching, and saturated absorption Q-switching. In the first three meth...
