Problems solved by technology

However, under a specific PCF, its refractive index distribution, air hole size and coupling length parameters are fixed values, so the tunable wavelength splitting cannot be realized, and the optical fibers in these PCF wavelength splitters must be double-core or multi-core PCF can achieve wavelength splitting

Abstract

The invention discloses a tunable single-core Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) SPR single polarization wavelength splitter, relates to a tunable fiber wavelength splitter, belongs to the field of fiber communication and optical devices, and is suitable for the fields of wavelength division multiplexing / demultiplexing, fiber sensing and laser systems. The shortcomings of fixed wavelength splitting of a general PCF wavelength splitter, small bandwidth, insufficient mode coupling and failure to realize beam splitting using a single-core PCF are overcome. In a single-core PCF (7), symmetrical upper (2-1) and lower air holes (2-2) are plated with metal materials (8-1, 8-2) on the inner side walls thereof. According to an SPR mixed mode coupling effect and a single polarization filtering property, when the light containing A and B wavelengths enters the PCF (7), the X polarized light of the light of the A wavelength is lost and Y polarized light is output, the light of the B wavelength is the other way around, and thus the light of the two wavelengths is split. In addition, according to a magneto-optic effect, the magnetic fluid refractive index in an oval air hole (3) varies with a magnetic field, and finally, the single polarization wavelength splitting is enabled to be tunable.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tunable single-core photonic crystal fiber SPR single-polarization wavelength splitter, which belongs to the field of optical fiber communication, optical network and optical devices, and is suitable for the fields of wavelength division multiplexing and demultiplexing, optical test instruments, optical fiber sensing and laser systems, etc. . Background technique [0002] Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) generally occurs at the junction of the medium and the metal, and is an electronic vibration phenomenon, which promotes the coupling of the metal surface wave mode with the waveguide mode, and finally under certain conditions (a certain Once the wavelength or incident angle is determined), the phase matching of the two modes produces resonant coupling. At this time, the loss value reaches the maximum and the loss peak appears. The common excitation structures of SPR include prism type, planar grating type and fiber type struc...
