Tunable ultrastable narrowband fiber lasers
摘要
介绍了一种基于商用掺铒光纤放大器、光纤布拉格光栅和可变光衰减器的可调谐、超稳定、窄带宽光纤激光器的实现方案及性能。研究结果表明,该光纤激光器的输出功率稳定性好(1 h之内的稳定度<0.92%),线宽窄(<52 pm),边模抑制比高(约30 dB),调谐范围超过20 nm。整个系统不仅可以用作窄带宽光纤激光器,还可以作为宽带自发辐射输出光源和掺铒光纤放大器,且该系统易于实现,很容易在普通实验室里搭建。
Abstract
This paper introduces the performances of an ultrastable tunable narrowband fiber laser and its implementation scheme. Based on the commercially available Erdoped fiber amplifier, fiber Bragg grating and variable optical attenuator, this fiber laser has high output power stability (<0.92% within one hour), narrow linewidth (<52 pm), high sidemode suppression ratio (~30 dB) and large tunable range (over 20 nm). The entire system can not only be used as a narrowband fiber laser but also as a wideband amplified spontaneous emission light source and an Erdoped fiber amplifier. Furthermore, this system can be easily realized in an ordinary laboratory.
