Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of optics and concretely relates to a preparation method of a silica-base broadband saturable absorber device. The preparation method mainly includes the following steps: firstly, preparing broadband saturable absorber sol, and secondly, dispensing the prepared broadband saturable absorber sol in a D type zone of a D type fiber, and then obtaining a broadband saturable absorber device after the sol stands to become gel. A sol-gel method is adopted to prepare broadband saturable absorbers, and the absorbers are uniformly distributed in silica sol to effectively isolate the air and form a great protection substrate, so oxidation is prevented, a light injury threshold is increased, and the use stability is improved. The broadband saturable absorbers can be used for an all-fiber evanescent wave mode locked fiber laser and can greatly reduce insertion loss, so unsaturated loss of the broadband saturable absorber device is reduced. The prepared broadband saturable absorbers are convenient to use and convenient for industrial popularization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optics, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a silicon dioxide-based broadband saturable absorption device. Background technique [0002] Ultrashort pulse high-end laser technologies represented by picoseconds and femtoseconds have broad application prospects in the fields of national security, national defense construction, high-tech industrialization, and technological frontiers. [0003] With the invention and maturity of semiconductor saturable absorber mirror (SESAM), ultrashort pulse laser technology has entered a new stage. Various types of SESAMs are marketed as absorber mode-locked lasers. As a traditional stable saturable absorber, SESAM, as a passive mode-locked absorber, can generate both femtosecond laser and picosecond laser, so that ultrashort pulses can learn from each other in industrial applications and have their own uses. [0004] However, SESAM can only be used as a discrete d...
