A kind of preparation method of multi-cavity etalon
Technical field
The present invention relates to optical field, relate in particular to a kind of preparation method of multi-cavity etalon.
Background technology
Etalon is a kind of comb filtering optical element, and its key technical indexes comprises: Free Spectral Range, see through peak, fineness etc. At optics, optical communication field, standard is commonly employed.
Lock ripple device is a kind of device for laser instrument wavelength locking, and its core parts are exactly etalon. The general principles of this utilization is as follows: under normal circumstances, the peak that sees through of laser output wavelength and etalon overlaps, and laser through etalon, then is held to using from laser instrument output. Now laser from the luminous power of laser instrument output with the ratio of luminous power after etalon in minimum state. And in the time that drift occurs laser output wavelength, due to the filter action of etalon, the luminous power of laser after etalon reduces, laser increases from the luminous power of laser instrument output and the ratio of luminous power after etalon. This power reduces phenomenon and is detected also feedback signal of processed rear formation. This feedback signal is provided for laser wavelength control system again, revises laser output wavelength a reference signal is provided for it. Sometimes in order to improve feedback signal sensitivity, wavelength corresponding to extreme point that meeting choice criteria tool transmitance changes overlaps with laser output wavelength. In a word, in etalon utilization in this respect, be mainly to see through these two of peak and finenesses to the index request of etalon.
In some specific use, require etalon to see through peak and there is certain flat-top, as laser cavity modeling, InterLeaver, WDM etc. For single chamber etalon, fineness index is two indexs that mutually oppose with seeing through peak flat-top index. Fineness index request height, sees through peak flat-top just poor; Otherwise it is good to see through peak flat-top, and fineness index is low. In order to meet high-fineness and to see through good these two indexs of peak flat-top simultaneously, need to adopt two-chamber or multi-cavity etalon. Compare with single chamber etalon, it is wider that multi-cavity etalon has pass band width, between passband and non-passband, has higher steepness, sees through peak and have outside the advantages such as flat-top.
Taking two-chamber etalon as example. Two single chamber etalons to be linked together and realize two-chamber etalon, in order realizing through peak flat-top, to need strictly to control the consistent through peak of these two single chamber etalons, namely will strictly control the thickness of these two single chamber etalons. If the material of two single chamber etalons is the same, the thickness of two single chamber etalons wants consistent. The 50GHz air-gap etalon that is 20 for fineness, two single chamber etalon thickness deviations need to be less than 19nm, see through peak and just have more satisfactory flat-top. This is very difficult for the production program of merely realizing THICKNESS CONTROL by cold working, has more challenge for the processing of multi-cavity etalon.
