Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing a super-continuum spectrum under an incoherent light pump in optical fiber, and relates to the field of nonlinear optical fiber optics. The method comprises the steps of coupling incoherent light into a filter to obtain incoherent light which is subjected to filtering; coupling filtered incoherent light into a polarizer to obtain incoherent light which is subjected to linear polarization; adopting the incoherent light which is subjected to linear polarization as pump light and then coupling the pump light into high nonlinearity polarization-maintaining optical fiber, and obtaining the super-continuum spectrum on an output end of the high nonlinearity polarization-maintaining optical fiber. According to the method for producing the super-continuum spectrum under the incoherent light optical pump in the optical fiber, the super-continuum spectrum of which the frequency spectrum is smoother can be achieved under the same pump power.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of nonlinear fiber optics, in particular to a method for generating supercontinuum under incoherent light pumping in an optical fiber. Background technique [0002] Supercontinuum light source has become a research hotspot in the field of optics because of its wide application in many fields such as spectral measurement, biomedical imaging, and optical sensing. The generation of supercontinuum in optical fiber is based on the result of the great broadening of the spectrum caused by the joint action of various nonlinear effects in the optical fiber. Compared with the supercontinuum generated by pulsed pumping, the supercontinuum generated by continuous optical pumping has the following advantages: higher power spectral density, lower relative intensity noise, and flatter spectrum. [0003] In the study of supercontinuum generation under continuous optical pumping, it was found that modulation instability is one of the...
