单纵模相移DFB掺Yb3+光纤激光器运行特性的研究

对我们所制作的λ/4相移DFB掺Yb3+光纤激光器的运行特性进行了研究。研究表明：光纤端面菲涅尔反射会破坏激光器的单纵模运行,因此为获得稳定的羊纵模运行须使用隔离器或甘油清除光纤端面菲涅尔反射；机械扰动则会使沿光纤传输的单偏振激光的偏振面发生变化；温度的涨落则会引起激光输出功率的不稳定涨落。所研制à/4相移DFB单纵模、单偏振激光器具有如下特性：阈值为38mW,当泵浦功率为140 mW时,获得了25mW的1053 nm单 纵模、羊偏振激光.偏振消光比约30 dB,单纵模激光功率涨落小于2%,边模抑制比约6

调Q及连续掺Yb光纤激光器中的自锁模研究

在用半导体激光器抽运的单包层掺Yb调Q光纤激光器中观察到了清晰稳定的自锁模脉冲序列。脉冲包络形状为调Q脉冲。每个锁模脉冲的幅值由其在调Q脉冲中的相应位置决定。经过分析，认为自相位调制是调Q光纤激光器中产生锁模的主要原因。自相位调制的存在使得光脉冲的频谱被展宽，当这种展宽和腔的模式间隔相差不多时，腔内的模式便能相互作用，直到它们之间产生一个固定的相位关系。也即形成锁模。在此基础上。去掉声光晶体，并用两个光栅作为腔镜，实现了全光纤法布里-珀罗(F-P)腔锁模光纤激光器。改变腔结构，分别采用光栅和光纤反射圈作为

一种制作掺Yb相移光纤光栅激光器的实验方案

采用遮挡法引入相移制作了掺Yb相移光纤光栅(PS-FBG)。在制作光栅的过程中,将其作为激光器的谐振腔,通过监测激光器的输出功率来确定相移大小。当激光器的输出功率开始下降时,停止曝光,此时引入的相移为π/2。为了使光栅的特性尽快稳定下来需要对光栅进行退火,这将导致引入的相移小于π/2。为了弥补退火过程中引起的相移降低,需要对退火后的光栅进行二次曝光,以使光栅的相移恢复π/2。利用该方法制作了一只光纤光栅激光器。当抽运功率为100 mW时,获得了25 mW的输出功率,信噪比(SNR)为60 dB。在1 h内

Strong visible up-conversion emissions and thermometric applications of Er3+-Yb3+ codoped Al2O3 prepared by the sol-gel method

The Er3+-Yb3+ codoped Al2O3 has been prepared by the sol-gel method using the aluminium isopropoxide [Al(OC3H7)(3)]-derived Al2O3 sols with addition of the erbium nitrate [Er(NO3)(3) center dot 5H(2)O] and ytterbium nitrate [Yb(NO3)(3) center dot 5H(2)O]. The phase structure, including only two crystalline types of doped Al2O3 phases, theta and gamma, was obtained for the 1 mol% Er3+ and 5 mol% Yb3+ codoped Al2O3 at the sintering temperature of 1,273 K. By a 978 nm semiconductor laser diodes excitation, the visible up-conversion emissions centered at about 523, 545, and 660 nm were obtained. The temperature dependence of the green up-conversion emissions was studied over a wide temperature range of 300-825 K, and the reasonable agreement between the calculated temperature by the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) theory and the measured temperature proved that Er3+-Yb3+ codoped Al2O3 plays an important role in the application of high temperature sensor.

2W Yb-doped double-clad fiber superfluorescent source with 42 nm 3 dB bandwidth

The output spectrum of Yb-doped double-clad fiber superfluorescent source (SFS) is tailored by placing a broadband dichroic mirror in the pump end of conventional single-pass forward configuration, which constitutes double-pass forward configuration. The 3 dB bandwidth is increased from I I to 42 nm. A maximum output SFS power of 2.12 W and a slope efficiency of 43.2% are obtained. The double-clad fiber is 25 in and the pump power is adequate to saturate the fiber as far as the feedback-induced lasing appears. (c) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
