Abstract

The invention relates to an ultra-broadband high-gain fiber and device preparation technology. The steps include (1) preparing a gain fiber: the gain fiber is a composite structure fiber, and the core is a fan-shaped structure with multiple sets of symmetrical distribution or a plurality of concentric The annular structure is composed of at least two kinds of rare earth-doped glasses, and the light-emitting centers are respectively located in different fan-shaped structures or annular structure regions in the fiber core; (2) constructing fiber lasers: using the gain fiber, by controlling the pump light The shape of the light spot selectively excites the rare earth ions in different regions in the fiber core, and combines with the fiber grating pair to realize tunable laser output. The invention combines the design of the optical fiber structure with the control of the light field distribution of the pump light, and the prepared gain fiber has the characteristics of high gain and ultra-broadband, and by selectively exciting the luminescent ions in a specific area, it avoids redundant pumping of the whole fiber core. The heat can be applied to broadband tunable single-frequency fiber lasers and high repetition rate mode-locked fiber lasers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fibers and optical fiber lasers, in particular to an ultra-broadband high-gain optical fiber and device preparation technology. Background technique [0002] A fiber laser usually consists of a pump source, a gain fiber, and a resonant cavity. The gain fiber is usually a rare-earth-doped glass fiber, which is the core of the fiber laser; the pump source provides energy to make the rare-earth ions in the gain fiber generate spontaneous emission and stimulated emission; the resonator realizes the round-trip oscillation of the signal light, and finally realizes the laser output. Compared with gas lasers and traditional solid-state lasers, fiber lasers are composed of gain fibers and fiber devices (such as fiber gratings, fiber couplers, and fiber polarization controllers, etc.) , high stability, and easy adjustment of the output wavelength, it has been widely used in military and civilian fields suc...
