双包层石英基掺Tm^(3+)光敏光纤的研制及应用

掺Tm3+石英光纤将光纤激光器的输出调谐范围扩展到1 780~2 050 nm。掺Tm3+光纤激光器在医学、生物学、遥感、超快光学等方面被广泛应用。但是,近年来对掺Tm3+石英光纤的研制的报道较少。利用液相掺杂工艺在MCVD车床上研制了具有强光敏性的双包层石英基掺Tm3+光敏光纤。在这种光纤上写入均匀Bragg光纤光栅,由反射率为90%的光纤光栅和光纤端面反馈构成线形光学谐振腔。在工作波长为793 nm的泵浦光抽运下,获得波长为1 946.989 3 nm、谱线宽度为59.5 pm、功率为2.10 W的激光输出。

在MCVD车床上利用"湿法"掺杂方法研制出纤芯高掺Ge的石英基掺Tm3+光纤预制棒,采用侧面研磨和抛光工艺制成横截面为正六边形的光纤预制棒.经拉丝,内层涂覆低折射率材料后制成包层抽运光纤.测试其吸收谱,并对光纤参数进行优化.通过在光纤两端紫外写入光纤Bragg光栅,制成线形光学谐振腔,在工作波长793 nm的激光抽运下,获得工作波长1947.1031 nm、功率2.05 W的激光输出.由此证明这种光纤具有优异的光学特性.

Generation of 100 nJ pulse,1 W average power at 2μm from an intermode beating mode-locked all-fiber laser

We report on the investigation of intermode beating mode-locked(IBML)pulse generation in a simple all-fiber Tm^3+-doped double clad fiber laser(TDFL).This IBML TDFL is implemented by matching longitudinal-mode frequency between 793 nm laser and TDFL without extra mode locker.The central wavelength of 1983 nm,the fundamental pulse frequency of 9.6 MHz and the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of>50 dB are achieved in this IBML TDFL.With laser cavity optimization,the IBML TDFL can finally generate an average output power of 1.03 W with corresponding pulse energy of 107 nJ.These results can provide an easily accessible way to develop compact large-energy,highpower TDFLs.
