Abstract

The invention discloses a single-mode fiber laser with a mini resonance cavity structure, and relates to the fields of fiber-optical communication and high power and high light beam quality requirements. The invention aims to solve the problem that the structure is too complicated, or the power is difficult to increase, or laser characteristics cannot meet the requirement in the conventional fiber laser. The laser comprises an optical fiber, an optical grating and a pumping source. A mini resonance cavity (4) is arranged in the optical fiber, has a shape of a ring and tangent lines tangent with the ring, or a rectangle, and is positioned in the fiber core or a joint of a cladding and the fiber core. In the process of manufacturing the mini resonance cavity, the optical fiber is exposed byan ultraviolet laser or a femtosecond laser, the refractive index on the exposure part is higher that that of a peripheral medium, and the structure of the mini resonance cavity (4) is formed. The single-mode fiber laser is mainly used for fiber-optical communication and industrial processing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a single-mode fiber laser. It is especially suitable for high-quality light fields with high-quality requirements for optical frequency bandwidth or high power. Background technique [0002] Since the advent of laser, its good coherence characteristics have been widely recognized. With the development of optical communication technology, there are better requirements for the quality of lasers. With the wide application of modern networks, people have higher and higher requirements on the capacity and speed of communication networks, and the quality of signal laser sources has become a crucial factor for large-capacity optical communications. [0003] At present, many research and development teams are conducting research on laser performance, and have achieved considerable results. The development of lasers is nothing more than two aspects, one is high power, which is mainly used in industrial cutting, military and other fiel...
