Abstract

The invention provides an optical fiber gas cascaded Raman laser capable of realizing 3-5-micron band tuning. The laser comprises a 1-micron band tunable Raman pump source, a first level gas Raman laser generation device and a second level gas Raman laser generation device, the first level gas Raman laser generation device converts 1-micron pump laser generated by the 1-micron band tunable Raman pump source into first level Raman scattering laser, and the first level Raman scattering laser is laser of 1.5-micron band or 2-micron band; and the second level gas Raman laser generation device converts the first level Raman scattering laser into second level Raman scattering laser, and the second level Raman scattering laser is 3-5-micron band tunable mid-infrared laser. According to the optical fiber gas cascaded Raman laser provided by the invention, the output of 3-5-micron band tunable mid-infrared laser is realized in an anti-resonant hollow fiber with a negative curvature by employing a gas Raman cascading manner for the first time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lasers, and relates to a novel laser capable of generating 3-5 μm band tuned mid-infrared laser output based on the gas cascade stimulated Raman scattering effect in a hollow-core optical fiber. Background technique [0002] Because its wavelength is in the atmospheric transmission window, mid-infrared lasers in the 3-5 μm band are suitable for long-distance transmission in the atmosphere. Therefore, they have important application values ​​in military fields such as infrared countermeasures and lidar, as well as civilian technical fields such as laser spectrum experiments and atmospheric environment monitoring. , has always been a hot spot of international research. [0003] At present, the traditional technical means to obtain mid-infrared laser mainly include gas molecular absorption transition and nonlinear frequency conversion technology. [0004] Chemical lasers use the over-frequency absorption an...
