全光纤傅里叶变换光谱仪的关键技术研究

Research on Key Technologies of All Fiber Optic Fourier Transform Spectrometer

研究一种基于光纤Mach-Zehnder干涉仪结构的全光纤傅里叶变换光谱仪(fiber fourier transform spectrometer,FFTS)。设计了光程调制范围可达2 cm的压电陶瓷光纤相位调制器,代替传统傅里叶变换光谱仪中的动镜产生光程扫描。实验中采用1 310 nm DFB激光器作为参考光源,对测试光干涉图进行等光程间隔采样,以消除压电陶瓷非线性光程调制产生的误差。通过对测试光干涉图做傅里叶逆变换得到测试光光谱图。利用该FFTS系统测量了ASE宽带光源的光谱,并将测量结果和光栅光谱仪测量结果进行了对比,结果表明两者所测ASE光谱线型一致。最后,利用光纤光栅作为样品,对FFTS系统的光谱分辨率进行了检测,光谱分辨率达到了0.78 cm-1。

A noval all fiber optic Fourier transform spectrometer based on single mode fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer is reported. The authors designed a piezoelectric optical phase modulator with two centimeter scan scale, which Was used to replace the moving mirror of traditonal Fourier transform spectrometer. The 1 310 nm DFB laser was used as reference light source to make equal interval sampling of test light source＇s interferogram, and to eliminate errors of nonlinear modulation. Through making the inverse Fourier transform to test light source＇s interferogram, the authors obtained the spectrum of test source. The spectrum of ASE broadband light source was measured by FFTS system, and the experiment result agrees with that tested by grating spectrometer. Finally, the authors utilized fiber grating as sample to measure the resolution of FFTS system, and the spectral resolution is 0. 78 cm^-1.
