The application provides a mid-
infrared laser linewidth
measurement device and method based on a hollow-core anti-resonant
fiber, and belongs to the technical field of precise
laser parameter measurement. The device comprises a mid-
infrared single-frequency
laser, a first collimating lens, a
beam splitter, an acousto-optic modulator, an aperture, a first mirror, a converging lens, a hollow-core anti-resonant
fiber, a second collimating lens, a second mirror, a beam combiner, a
photodetector and a
spectrum analyzer. The method is as follows: after the laser is split, one path is frequency-shifted, and the other path is introduced into a time
delay through the
fiber; beat frequency signals are generated by interference of the two paths of light; and the linewidth is obtained through
photoelectric conversion and
spectrum analysis. The application takes a low-loss hollow-core anti-resonant fiber as a core
delay element, solves the problem of difficulty in realizing long
optical path delay in the mid-
infrared waveband, has the advantages of compact structure, convenient adjustment, wide applicable waveband and high
measurement precision, and is suitable for precise linewidth measurement of a 2-5 mu m single-frequency laser.
