Abstract

The invention discloses an all-fiber high-order mode Brillouin fiber laser with a ring cavity structure. The all-fiber high-order mode Brillouin fiber laser includes a narrow linewidth pump laser, anoptical amplifier, a first polarization controller, a fiber circulator, a first fiber mode selective coupler, a second polarization controller, a single-mode fiber, a few-mode fiber, and a second fiber mode selective coupler. The first fiber mode selective coupler and the second fiber mode selective coupler are intracavity mode conversion devices. The directional selective coupling of a fundamental transverse mode in the single-mode fiber and a specific high-order mode in the few-mode fiber can be implemented. On the basis of the Brillouin nonlinear gain of the small-mode fiber in the ring cavity, the resonant amplification of the high-order mode in the cavity is realized, and the high-order mode laser can be directly output. The output high-order mode laser of the invention has good stability and high mode purity. The all-fiber high-order mode Brillouin fiber laser adopts the all-fiber structure and is compact in structure, low in cost, and easy to integrate with a fiber system, and the practicability and reliability of the high-order mode laser are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of fiber lasers and optical communications, in particular to an all-fiber high-order mode Brillouin fiber laser. Background technique [0002] Due to their unique spatial intensity, phase, and polarization distributions, higher-order mode lasers have broad application prospects and have attracted increasing interest. For example, in the field of optical communication, information is modulated on several different higher-order modes, that is, mode division multiplexing technology, which can significantly improve the transmission capacity in optical communication. In the field of optical fiber sensing, higher order modes can achieve higher temperature and strain resolution accuracy. In addition, vortex lasers derived from higher-order modes have great potential in quantum and nano-optics, optical manipulation, super-resolution imaging, and laser material processing. [0003] Driven by these applications, researchers ...
