Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nonlinear light field control, in particular to the generation of dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum modes in lithium niobate crystals, and specifically to a dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum mode generating device. Background Art

[0002] Photon orbital angular momentum (OAM) has the characteristics of spirally distributed phase, infinite dimension and orthogonality. Since it was verified by Allen et al. in 1992, it has been widely used in light manipulation, optical communication, quantum, imaging, detection and optical encryption. The important application of OAM mode in the field of optics has promoted the research on its generation method. In addition to the commonly used spiral phase plate, q-plate, computational holography, π / 2 mode converter, etc., there are also various micro-integrated OAM generation devices. However, these methods are limited to the linear field. If you want to efficiently generate OAM mode at a new frequency, the traditional method requires two devices: first, frequency conversion is performed through nonlinear materials, and then OAM is loaded through linear devices. In order to save cost and space, a device is needed to perform nonlinear light field control and realize beam shaping while nonlinear conversion. Two-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystals and metasurfaces can realize nonlinear light field control, but the efficiency is low. The three-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystals that have emerged in recent years are not only designed in the vertical propagation direction, but also in the vertical direction. (2) The light field can be distributed and regulated, and at the same time, the periodic structure can be considered in the propagation direction to achieve quasi-phase matching, improve the nonlinear conversion efficiency, and realize efficient nonlinear beam shaping of extraordinary light (e-light for short).

[0003] Femtosecond laser direct writing technology provides a flexible way to prepare three-dimensional nonlinear photonic crystals. It can not only erase the second-order nonlinear coefficient χ at any position inside the crystal, but also (2) By utilizing the birefringence phase matching of lithium niobate crystals, the fundamental frequency ordinary light (ordinary light, referred to as o-light) is firstly efficiently nonlinearly converted to generate double frequency e-light, and then the double frequency e-light is linearly diffracted based on the change of the structural refractive index, which can also achieve efficient nonlinear light field control. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of this, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the present invention proposes a dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum mode generating device, which can simultaneously realize birefringence phase matching and quasi-phase matching by switching the polarization direction of the fundamental wave, and combines linear holographic diffraction and nonlinear holographic diffraction to make both o-light and e-light produce efficient frequency-doubled OAM mode, ultimately realizing the generation of efficient dual-polarization frequency-doubled OAM mode.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum mode generating device, which is processed in a lithium niobate crystal using laser processing technology, which not only changes the second-order nonlinear technology of the lithium niobate crystal, but also changes the refractive index of the lithium niobate crystal. The processed lithium niobate crystal includes two regions, which are a first region and a second region arranged in sequence from left to right;

[0007] The first region is a non-processing region, and based on the birefringence phase matching principle, the fundamental frequency ordinary light is converted into the doubled frequency extraordinary light;

[0008] The second region is a fork-shaped grating array. Due to the change in the refractive index of this region, linear holographic diffraction is performed on the doubled extraordinary light, and orbital angular momentum is loaded at a high order.

[0041] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be pointed out that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] The present invention discloses a dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum mode generating device, which is processed in a lithium niobate crystal by using a femtosecond laser processing technology, which not only changes the second-order nonlinear technology of the lithium niobate crystal, but also changes the refractive index of the lithium niobate crystal. The structure of the processed lithium niobate crystal mainly includes two regions, namely, a first region and a second region arranged from left to right; the first region is a non-processing region, which can convert the baseband ordinary light into the frequency-doubled extraordinary light based on the principle of birefringence phase matching; the second region is a fork-shaped grating array, and since the refractive index of the region changes, the frequency-doubled extraordinary light can be linearly holographically diffracted, and the orbital angular momentum is loaded at a high order. In addition, the change of the second-order nonlinear coefficient of the region can also perform nonlinear holographic diffraction on the baseband extraordinary light based on the quasi-phase matching principle, and generate the frequency-doubled extraordinary light with orbital angular momentum at a high order. This technology processes a three-dimensional fork grating array in a lithium niobate crystal. Based on the principles of birefringence phase matching and quasi-phase matching, it combines linear holographic diffraction and nonlinear holographic diffraction to enable both fundamental frequency ordinary light and extraordinary light polarizations to produce efficient frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum modes.

[0044] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a dual-polarization frequency-doubling orbital angular momentum mode generating device, such as Figure 1 As shown in (a), the structure of the processed lithium niobate crystal mainly includes two regions, which can be expressed as:

[0045]

[0046] in, is the azimuth angle of the xz plane, l0 is the topological charge of the OAM mode, x, y, z are the three azimuth values ​​of the rectangular coordinate system, and on the yz plane, the spatial frequency G y =G z =2π / Λ, where Λ is the grating period. T is a binary function, which can be expressed as:

[0047]

[0048] Femtosecond laser processing can cause a change in the second-order nonlinear coefficient of the crystal Δχ (2) and the refractive index change Δn, the linear and nonlinear fork grating arrays can be expressed as:

[0049] n(x,y,z)=n0-Δnf(x,y,z) (3)

[0050]

[0051] where n0 and Represents the original refractive index and nonlinear coefficient of lithium niobate crystal.

[0052] When the fundamental wave is incident on the crystal along the y direction and polarized along the z direction (optical axis direction), the fundamental wave is ordinary light (ordinary light, referred to as o light), which passes through the non-processed area of ​​the lithium niobate crystal and generates frequency-doubled extraordinary light (ordinary light, referred to as e light), such as Figure 1 As shown in (b), the birefringence-like phase matching condition is:

[0053] k 2ω (e) = k ω (o)+k ω (o) (5)

[0054] where k 2ω (e), k ω (o) are the wave vectors of the doubled frequency e-light and the fundamental frequency o-light, respectively. From formula (5), it can be seen that the doubled frequency light passing through the non-processed area is e-light. Then, linear holographic diffraction occurs in the processed area, generating an orbital angular momentum beam at a higher order.

[0055] When the fundamental wave is incident on the crystal along the y direction and polarized along the x direction, the fundamental wave is e-light. The change of the second-order nonlinear coefficient directly performs nonlinear holographic diffraction on the fundamental wave, and an OAM frequency-doubled beam is emitted at a higher order, satisfying Figure 1 (c) shows the quasi-phase matching condition:

[0056] k 2ω (e) = k ω (e)+k ω (e)+G m,n (6)

[0057] where k ω (e) is the fundamental frequency e light, G m,n The reciprocal lattice vector required for quasi-phase matching conditions can be expressed as:

[0058] G m,n =mG y +nG z (7)

[0059] Where m and n can be any integers. It can be seen from formula (6) that the frequency-doubled OAM light emitted by quasi-phase matching is still e-light.

The lithium niobate crystal is placed on a three-dimensional nano-translation stage. The stroke of the three-dimensional nano-translation stage is controlled by a computer (Labview software) to make the laser scribe along the x-direction. The energy of the laser processing changes from 240nJ to 200nJ between 120μm and 20μm below the crystal surface. The length of the line is 100μm, forming a fork-shaped grating. 15 layers of the same grating are processed along the y-direction to form a fork-shaped grating array. The period of the y-axis and z-axis is Λ=6.25μm. The prepared structure is shown in FIG. Figure 2 (b).

[0066] The second laser emits a laser with a pulse width of 140fs and a repetition frequency of 80MHz along the x direction. The energy of the laser is regulated by a third half-wave plate and a second polarization beam splitter, the polarization direction of the fundamental wave is changed by a fourth half-wave plate, and then the laser is focused by a third lens with a focal length of 75mm to hit the dual-polarization frequency-doubled orbital angular momentum mode generating device, and the frequency-doubled signal is observed on a receiving screen.
