摘要
为了解决微纳光纤之间的结构稳定性差的问题,使用CO_2激光作为加热源,加热两根重叠在一起的微纳光纤,并在显微镜下观察其熔接情况,最终将两根微纳光纤熔接成一根,而且熔接点的光纤表面光滑,直径均匀。通过CO_2激光加热的方法,实现了微纳光纤高质量的熔接,增加了微纳光纤之间的机械稳定性,使其更容易制作出纳米光子器件。
In order to solve the problem of poor structural stability between micro-nano optical fibers, we use CO_2 laser as the heating source to heat two micro-nano optical fibers together, and observe the fusion under the microscope, in the end, we weld two micro-nano optical fibers into one, and the surface of the fiber at the fusion point is smooth, the diameter is uniform. Through the method of CO_2 laser heating, the perfect fusion of micro-nano optical fibers is realized, which increases the mechanical stability between micro-nano optical fibers, make it easier to fabricate nano photonic devices.
