Abstract

The invention discloses a tunable ultra-short pulse laser based on an annular cavity. A seed laser is connected with one input end of a coupler, a photoelectric detector is connected with one output end of the coupler, and the other input end and the other output end of the coupler are connected through an optical fiber to form an annular feedback cavity. The acousto-optic frequency shifter, the optical fiber amplifier and the optical fiber delayer are connected in the annular feedback cavity. A seed laser switching power supply controls the on and off of the seed laser. During working, the seed laser switching power supply is started firstly, and the coupler outputs continuous light; when pulse laser needs to be generated, the seed laser switching power supply is turned off, and the coupler outputs the pulse laser. The laser is simple in structure and low in cost, and the system has multiple pulse tuning functions of a single device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of laser technology, in particular to a tunable ultrashort pulse laser based on a ring cavity. Background technique [0002] Ultrashort pulse laser is a widely used laser, and its main feature is that the peak power of the output laser is very high and the pulse width is very narrow (usually in the order of picoseconds and femtoseconds). At present, the main technologies capable of generating ultrashort pulse lasers include mode-locked laser technology, gain-switched semiconductor laser technology, and laser intensity modulation technology. Among them, mode-locked laser technology is the most common method to obtain ultrashort pulse laser output. There are many ways to achieve mode-locked, but generally can be divided into two categories: active mode-locked and passive mode-locked. Active mode-locking refers to periodically changing the gain or loss of the laser to achieve the purpose of mode-locking by providing a m...
