摘要
研究了基于压电陶瓷(PZT)拉伸机构轴向拉伸分布布拉格反射(DBR)光纤谐振腔的单纵模DBR光纤激光器的可控频率调谐特性和激光输出特性.理论分析表明,该调谐方案可有效缓解频率调谐过程中的跳模,利于获取更宽的无跳模频率调谐范围.实验验证了这种调谐机制可以对DBR光纤激光器实施快速、可控的大范围无跳模频率调谐,获得的最大无跳模频率调谐范围高达116 GHz.在频率调谐过程中,激光输出线宽和相对强度噪声的变化量不大,输出激光功率的较大波动可利用后接的光纤放大器有效抑制.
Abstract
In this paper,the controllable frequency-tuning and laser output characteristics of a single-longitudinal-mode distributed Bragg reflector(DBR)fiber laser with a piezoelectric ceramic that axially stretches across a DBR fiber resonant cavity are investigated.Our theoretical analysis shows that this tuning scheme can effectively prevent the occurrence of mode hopping during frequency tuning,which is beneficial for obtaining a wider frequency-tuning range without mode hopping.Additionally,experimental results verify that this tuning mechanism can achieve fast and controllable frequency tuning of the DBR fiber laser over a wide range without mode hopping.The maximum mode-hop-free frequency-tuning range obtained in our experiment is as high as 116 GHz.During the frequency-tuning process,changes in the linewidth and relative intensity noise of the laser are not significant;furthermore,large fluctuations in the output laser power can be effectively suppressed using a boost fiber-optic amplifier.
