Abstract

The invention provides a high order Raman inhibition method based on a polarization maintaining optical fiber 45-degree dislocation welding technology. The method realizes a polarization rotation function through the characteristic that Raman gain is low when pump wave and Stokes wave in a Raman gain spectrum are subjected to cross polarization in an online polarized Raman fiber laser and the 45-degree dislocation welding of polarization maintaining passive optical fiber, so that the polarization directions of pump light and low order Raman light are not changed, and the polarization directionof high order Raman and the pump light are orthometric, and the high order Raman grain is inhibited.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fiber lasers, and in particular relates to a high-order Raman suppression method. Background technique

[0002] Raman fiber lasers based on fiber-optic stimulated Raman scattering are widely used in optical communication, supercontinuum generation, acquisition of special-band light sources, and medical treatment due to their wide gain spectrum and wavelength flexibility. In recent years, with the development of diode-pumped rare-earth ion-doped fiber lasers, the output power of Raman fiber lasers has increased significantly. Among them, linearly polarized Raman fiber lasers have important applications in the fields of frequency conversion and spectrum synthesis.

[0003] The current maximum output power of linearly polarized Raman fiber lasers is only on the order of tens of watts, and further power improvement faces problems such as the generation of high-order Raman lasers. At present, there are two m...

Embodiment Construction

[0024] figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the present invention. In the linearly polarized Raman fiber laser, the Raman gain is relatively low when the pump wave and the Stokes wave are orthogonally polarized in the Raman gain spectrum. Through three sections of polarization-maintaining passive The two 45-degree dislocation fusion splices between the fibers realize the polarization rotation function with wavelength selection characteristics, so that the polarization directions of the pump light and the low-order Raman light remain unchanged, while the polarization direction of the high-order Raman light is orthogonal to the pump light. Thereby suppressing the gain of higher-order Raman.

[0025] refer to figure 1 A linearly polarized Raman fiber laser includes a linearly polarized pump source 1, a linearly polarized signal source 2, a polarization-maintaining passive fiber and a wavelength division multiplexer 5, and the polarization-mai...
