Abstract

The invention discloses a tapered fiber-based tunable dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser, which comprises a (2+1)*1 beam combiner, a thulium-doped fiber, a coupler, a polarization controller, a polarization independent isolator, a tapered fiber and a single-walled carbon nanotube which are sequentially connected end to end, wherein the (2+1)*1 beam combiner is also connected with a pump light source; the coupling ratio of the coupler is 10 to 90; the coupler comprises a 10% output port and a 90% output port in all; the 10% output port is connected to an output fiber; the 90% output port is connected to the polarization controller; the modulation period of the tapered fiber is 6.8-7.2nm; and the taper twist of the tapered fiber is 7.0-7.5microns. Through the tapered fiber with specific modulation period and modulation depth, the problem of laser mode competition is successfully solved by the tapered fiber; and output of tapered fiber-based tunable dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser light with a 2micron waveband is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tunable dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser, which belongs to the field of fiber lasers, and more specifically relates to a tunable dual-wavelength mode-locked fiber laser based on a tapered fiber. Background technique [0002] Ultrashort pulse laser has a wide range of applications in optical fiber communication, biotechnology, medical treatment, laser spectroscopy, ultrafine processing, time-resolved spectroscopy and other fields. Mode-locking technique is a common method to obtain ultrashort optical pulses. Therefore, the research on mode-locked fiber lasers outputting femtosecond pulses has become a hot spot in the field of laser technology in recent years. Generally speaking, mode-locked fiber lasers can be divided into two categories according to different mode-locking methods: one is active mode-locked fiber lasers, and an intensity modulator or phase modulator driven by a microwave signal must be inserted into th...
