本发明属于光纤激光器技术领域,特别涉及一种基于不同稀土纳米颗粒掺杂的超短腔多波长单频激光器。The invention belongs to the technical field of fiber lasers, in particular to an ultra-short cavity multi-wavelength single-frequency laser doped based on different rare earth nanoparticles.
背景技术Background technique
单频光纤激光器具有窄线宽、低噪声、相干长度长等优点,在相干光通信,高精度相干测距,相干激光雷达,高精度光谱和引力波探测等领域有着重要的应用。特别在高精度相干测距中,单频激光器由于其极窄的线宽,使测距系统具有非常高的测量精度。然而,在一些特殊应用环境下,如在大气探测中,由于大气折射率的不均匀分布及随机起伏,往往会导致一定的测量误差,从而增加测距的不确定度。为了降低测量过程中的误差,增加系统的精确度,通常使用双色干涉测量的方式来补偿空气折射率造成的距离误差。相比于传统的相干测距系统,双色相干测量系统需要同时使用两种不同波长的单频激光作为探测光源,并且要求两个波长的间距足够大以减小计算引入的误差。Single-frequency fiber lasers have the advantages of narrow linewidth, low noise, and long coherence length. They have important applications in coherent optical communication, high-precision coherent ranging, coherent lidar, high-precision spectroscopy and gravitational wave detection. Especially in high-precision coherent ranging, the single-frequency laser has a very high measurement accuracy due to its extremely narrow linewidth. However, in some special application environments, such as in atmospheric detection, due to the uneven distribution and random fluctuation of atmospheric refractive index, certain measurement errors are often caused, thereby increasing the uncertainty of ranging. In order to reduce the error in the measurement process and increase the accuracy of the system, two-color interferometry is usually used to compensate for the distance error caused by the refractive index of air. Compared with the traditional coherent ranging system, the two-color coherent measurement system needs to use two single-frequency lasers with different wavelengths as the detection light source at the same time, and the distance between the two wavelengths is required to be large enough to reduce the error introduced by the calculation.
双色单频光源通常可以由两种方式来获得,一种是通过两种不同波长的单频激光器合束来实现,这种方式需要分别搭建两个激光系统,然后通过额外的系统将两个激光器进行激光合束,因此系统较为复杂,且成本较高。另一种方式是使用双波长单频光纤激光器作为光源,双波长单频光纤激光器也有两种实现方式,一是基于一种增益光纤来实现,但这种方案产生的两个波长间隔较小,并且需要抑制腔内模式竞争;二是采用两种增益光纤来实现,这种方案通常采用双环腔结构以及将两种增益光纤级联到同一线性腔的结构,这些结构的激光器通常需要插入较多的选模器件来保证单频激光运转,因此,此类激光器的结构复杂,输出效率低,稳定性差。Two-color single-frequency light sources can usually be obtained in two ways. One is by combining two single-frequency lasers with different wavelengths. In this way, two laser systems need to be built separately, and then the two lasers are combined by an additional system. The laser beam combination is performed, so the system is more complicated and the cost is higher. Another way is to use a dual-wavelength single-frequency fiber laser as the light source. There are also two implementation ways for dual-wavelength single-frequency fiber lasers. One is based on a gain fiber, but the two wavelengths generated by this solution are relatively small. And it is necessary to suppress intra-cavity mode competition; the second is to use two kinds of gain fibers to achieve, this scheme usually adopts a double-ring cavity structure and a structure in which two kinds of gain fibers are cascaded into the same linear cavity. The lasers of these structures usually need to insert more Therefore, the structure of this type of laser is complex, the output efficiency is low, and the stability is poor.
