摘要
掺铒光纤非均匀展宽引起的空间烧孔现象导致单波长激光并不能完全控制放大器增益,提出了一种新颖的自动增益控制掺铒光纤放大器的结构:即采用高双折射光纤布拉格光栅产生抽运光,其写制光栅的波峰对应的波长分别为1549.3 nm和1549.83 nm,波长间隔为0.53 nm。通过调整偏振控制器,就实现了单激光或双激光的增益控制。这种设计增益控制范围为40 nm(1530~1570 nm),当输入功率在-40~-15 dBm的动态范围内,双激光增益控制的掺铒光纤放大器的平均增益和噪声系数分别约为22.22 dB和8.69 dB,而它们的漂移分别被钳制在0.69 dB和1.51 dB。系统性能测试表明:双激光控制掺饵光纤放大器在稳定性方面比单激光有着明显的优势。
Abstract
Spatial holeburning caused by ununiform widening of erbiumdoped fiber barricades the fully gaincontrolled amplification of laser with single wavelength. A novel configuration of automatic gainclamped optical erbiumdoped fiber amplifier is presented, and a high-birefringence fiber Bragg grating is used to generate pumping lasers, peaks of which are written at 1549.3 nm and 1549.83 nm with a wavelength spacing of 0.53 nm. By adjusting a polarization controller, single or dual laser gain control is realized. The design has a gainclamped bandwidth of 40 nm (1530~1570 nm). Within the dynamic range of input power -40~-15 dBm, the average gain and noise figure of the dual laser gain controlled erbiumdoped fiber amplifier are approximately 22.22 dB and 8.69 dB, and their excursions are limited in 0.69 dB and 1.51 dB, respectively. The system performance testing shows that the more stable characteristic of dual laser controlled erbiumdoped fiber amplifier is an obvious advantage over the single laser controlling.
