Embodiment 1

[0044] figure 1 It is a structural diagram of an all-fiber mode conversion device of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the all-fiber mode conversion device includes a first polarization controller 101, a mode filter 102, a mode converter 103, a second polarization controller 104, an optical fiber 105 and an optical fiber 106; the output end of the first polarization controller 101 The input end of the mode converter 103 is connected through an optical fiber 105, and the output end of the mode converter 103 is connected with the input end of the second polarization controller 104 through an optical fiber 106. The first polarization controller 101 is used to adjust the beam to circularly polarized light or linear polarization.

[0046] This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, and the special features are as follows:

[0047] The light generated by the light source first passes through the polarization controller 101. The polarization controller 101 is a single-mode fiber polarization controller corresponding to the single-mode fiber 105. The polarization controller 101 adjusts the light to circularly polarized light or linearly polarized light with a specific polarization direction. Afterwards, the light beam passes through a section of few-mode fiber 106 and passes through a mode converter 103 to transform the LP 01 The mode is converted to a higher-order LP core mode. It should be emphasized that the circularly polarized light entering the mode converter 103 converts to the vector mode of the LP higher-order core mode, and the linearly polarized light entering the mode converter 103 converts to obtain the linear polarization mode of the LP higher-order core mode. The converted high-or...

Abstract

The invention discloses an all-fiber mode conversion device and method and a detection device. The conversion device comprises a first polarization controller, a mode converter and a second polarization controller, wherein the output end of the first polarization controller is connected with the input end of the mode converter through an optical fiber, the output end of the mode converter is connected with the input end of the second polarization controller through an optical fiber, and the first polarization controller is used for adjusting a light beam to be circularly polarized light or linearly polarized light. The mode converter realizes mode conversion by using a long-period fiber bragg grating inscribed on a few-mode fiber by carbon dioxide laser, and the second polarization controller is used for adjusting the phase difference between vector HE odd-even modes or EH odd-even modes so as to generate an orbital angular momentum mode.
