掺Tm~(3+)双包层光纤激光特性研究
|
摘要
输出波长位于2μm附近的掺铥光纤激光器在现代军事技术(光电对抗)、生物医学和激光雷达等方面都有重要的应用。作为其核心器件的掺铥双包层光纤制备技术一直被国外研究小组掌握,极大地限制了国内掺铥光纤相关器件的发展。本论文的目的是研究我们组制备的掺铥双包层光纤的激光性能,为制备出高斜率效率、高功率的掺铥双包层光纤打基础,打破国外的技术垄断。
本文对已有的双包层掺杂光纤速率方程数学模型进行改进,用龙格-库塔方法对其进行求解,模拟、分析了铥离子掺杂浓度和光纤长度对掺铥光纤输出激光性能的影响。
采用改进的化学汽相沉积法(Modified Chemical Vapor Deposition,MCVD)和汽、液相掺杂技术制备了6种掺铥光纤预制棒,用拉丝塔拉制出6种双包层掺铥光纤。
搭建了掺铥双包层光纤激光器系统,对实验室自行制备的6种掺铥双包层光纤优化长度、测试了激光性能(斜率效率、激光波长、阈值)以及弯曲直径和不同泵浦波长对激光性能的影响,得出以下结论:1.斜率效率最低27.93%,最高43.23%,阈值从9.2W到14.25W变化,输出激光波长变化范围从2013nm至2043nm;2.使用掺铥双包层光纤DCTDF-M004的激光器,弯曲直径适当变小会增加斜率效率,当弯曲直径小于一定程度时,会使斜率效率下降;弯曲直径对阈值、输出激光波长的影响不大;3.掺铥双包层光纤DCTDF-M006的最佳泵浦波长位于791nm附近,此时斜率效率最大,为43.39%;输出激光波长随泵浦波长的增加发生红移;泵浦波长的变化对于阈值影响不大。对以上测试结果进行分析,为制备出高性能的光纤奠定基础。
The thulium-doped fiber laser whose output wavelength is 2 micron plays an important role in modern military technology(electrooptical countermeasures),biomed icine and lidar.As the core equipment,the preparation technology of thulium-doped double-cladding fiber has been mastered by foreign research team,which has limited the development of the thulium-fiber-using equipment home.This paper aims to research the laser characteristic of thulium-doped fiber prepared by our team,in order to prepare high slope efficiency and high output power fiber,breaking the monopoly of foreign countries.
Firstly,we modify the velocity equation and solve it using the runge-kutta solution.,then simulate and analyse the influence of thulium-ion-doped concentration and fiber length to the laser characteristic.
Using the Modified Chemical Vapor Deposition and solution or vapour doping technology,we prepared six kinds thulium-doped perform,then draw them to double-cladding fiber.
We establish the thulium-doped fiber laser system and test the laser characteristic(slope efficiency,laser wavelength,threshold) of six thulium-doped double-cladding fiber and the influence of bend diameter and different pump wavelength to the laser characteristic,conclusion as follows:1.The minimum slope efficiency is 27.93%,the maximum is 43.23%,threshold changes from 9.2W to 14.25W,output wavelength is between 2013nm and 2043nm;2.Using DCTDF-M004 as gain medium,small bend diameter doesn’t always lead to high slope efficiency;bend diameter has ignore influence on threshold and output wavelength;3.The appropriate pump wavelength for DCTDF-M006 is around 791nm,corresponding to the maximum slope efficiency 43.39%;the output wavelength shifts red with the pump wavelength increases;the change of pump wavelength has ignore influence to the threshold.Analyse the test result and establish foundation for preparing high performance fiber.
