    • 摘要: 采用非线性放大环形镜的被动锁模机制,通过加入手动可调滤波器及光纤光栅等实现单波长光谱输出,设计出一种可调谐纳秒脉冲光纤激光器。纳秒矩形脉冲由被动锁模掺铒光纤激光器产生,激光器的腔长为430 m,脉冲的重复频率为465 kHz。被动锁模光纤激光器中实现可调谐脉冲输出的关键器件包括宽带锁模器件和可调谐滤波器,其中宽带锁模器件是反射式的非线性放大环形镜。结果表明,当激光器工作在1560 nm,泵浦功率为400 mW时,脉冲宽度为10.58 ns,单脉冲能量为70.28 nJ。激光器的可调谐范围为1523.4 nm~1575 nm,比此前报道的可调谐范围要宽10 nm。

       

      Abstract: A tunable nanosecond pulse fiber laser is demonstrated in the paper. The laser adopts the passive mode locking mechanism of the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror and a manually adjustable filter and fiber grating are added to achieve single-wavelength spectral output. The passive mode locked erbium-doped fiber laser with 430 m cavity length generates the nanosecond rectangle pulse at 465 kHz repetition rate. The tunable passive mode locked fiber laser incorporates a broad bandwidth mode locking device and a tunable filter in the cavity. The broad bandwidth mode locker is the key device for the tunable pulse output, which is based on a reflective nonlinear amplifying loop mirror. The result shows that the pulse duration and the single-pulse energy are 10.58 ns and 70.28 nJ respectively when the laser works at 1560 nm and has 400 mW pump power. The tunable range is from 1523.4 nm to 1575 nm.
