激光频率调制线型分析

Analysis of the Lineshape of Laser Frequency Modulation

在激光频率调制的理论分析中 ,一般采用正弦波调制、正弦波解调 ,而没有讨论调制和解调的其它情况。本文主要分析了Guass线型吸收的情况下 ,锯齿波调制、方波解调的一次、二次谐波相检结果和三角波调制、方波解调的一次、二次谐波相检结果 ,以及调制深度对信号谱形和信号强度的影响。我们发现 ,在锯齿波调制、方波解调情况下 ,一次、二次谐波谱形与正弦波调制情况区别很大 ;但在三角波调制、方波解调情况下 ,可以获得和正弦波调制、正弦波解调情况相似的结论。另外 ,不同的调制深度对输出的调制谱形也有重要的影响。我们还用甲烷的可调谐红外激光调制吸收光谱实验验证了理论分析结果。最终得到结论 :频率调制谱的信号谱形及信号强度与调制波形。

In this paper, we analyze the dependence of the output signal spectral lineshape and intensity on the modulation, waveform and modulation index in first-and second-harmonic detection of triangle modulation, square demodulation and saw modulation square demodulation. The signal lineshape in the case of saw modulation, square demodulation is quite different from, whereas the signal lineshape in the case of triangle modulation, square demodulation is similar to that in traditional sine modulation, sine demodulation. Experiments of tunable IR laser frequency modulation absorption spectrum of methane are also done to verify the theoretical analysis. Then we reach a conclusion; the lineshape and intensity of frequency modulation spectrum can be influenced by modulation waveform, demodulation waveform and modulation index. Calculation results can be used to choose better experimental parameters and optimize experimental designs.
