Abstract

The invention discloses a signal-pump beam combiner capable of keeping high beam quality and aims at solving the problem that an existing signal-pump beam combiner is difficult to keep high beam quality while achieving extra-large mode field output. The signal-pump beam combiner comprises a signal fiber, a signal transition fiber, pump fibers, a low-refractive index glass tube and an output fiber,wherein the signal fiber is welded with the signal transition fiber; N pump fibers surround the periphery of the signal transition fiber and pass through a taper in the middle of the low-refractive index glass tube to form a molten fiber bundle; the molten fiber bundle is welded with the output fiber; and the output fiber also passes through the taper. The signal-pump beam combiner is capable ofreducing the through put loss of signal light and keeping high coupling efficiency of pump light, thereby keeping high beam quality when the signal light reaches the signal transition fiber (a relatively large mode field) from the signal fiber (a small mode field) and then reaches the output fiber (an extra-large mode field).

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fiber lasers, in particular to a signal-pump beam combiner maintaining high beam quality. technical background: [0002] Compared with traditional lasers, fiber lasers have the advantages of high conversion efficiency, good beam quality, convenient thermal management, and compact structure. application; as people's requirements for the output power of fiber lasers continue to increase, high power has become an important goal for the development of fiber lasers. At present, the power of fiber lasers has completed a huge transformation from milliwatts to 10,000 watts. Relevant studies have shown that current high-power fiber lasers are based on the MOPA (Master Oscillator Power-Amplifier, the power amplifier of the master oscillator) structure. With the increase of the amplifier power based on the MOPA structure, the researchers found that when the power of the fiber laser increases to To a certain extent...
