[0015] Embodiment 1 Concrete structure of the present invention

[0016] figure 1 It is a schematic structure diagram of the wavelength-tunable single-polarization single-frequency ring cavity fiber laser described in the present invention. Composed of pumping source 1, wavelength division multiplexer 2, erbium-doped fiber 3, fiber polarizer 4, polarization-maintaining fiber 5, bandpass filter 6, optical isolator 7, 2×2 optical coupler 8, two-mode gradient It consists of a refractive index fiber 9, a fiber circulator 10, and a polarization controller 11.

[0017] Their connection relationship is: the output port of the pump source 1 is connected to the 980nm port of the wavelength division multiplexer 2, the 1550nm port of the wavelength division multiplexer 2 is connected to one end of the fiber polarizer 4, and the other end of the fiber polarizer 4 Connect to one end of the polarization-maintaining optical fiber 5, the other end of the polarization-maintaining optical fib...

Embodiment 2

[0019] Embodiment 2 Working principle of the present invention

[0020] The wavelength-tunable single-polarization single-frequency ring-cavity fiber laser of the present invention adopts a reverse pumping structure, and the 980nm pumping optical signal sent by the pumping source 1 pumps a section of erbium-doped optical fiber 3 through the wavelength division multiplexer 2, and the optical isolation The device 7 is used to ensure that the laser signal in the ring resonator runs clockwise, and the reverse spontaneous emission optical amplification signal (generated by the erbium-doped fiber 3) enters the birefringent fiber filter composed of the fiber polarizer 4 and the polarization-maintaining fiber 5. Birefringent fiber filters effectively select single-polarized optical signals, and their good polarization-maintaining characteristics are beneficial to the single-polarization output of fiber lasers, while their narrow-band filtering characteristics are beneficial to suppress...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fiber lasers, in particular to a wavelength-tunable single-polarization single-frequency ring-cavity fiber laser. Background technique [0002] Fiber laser has the characteristics of high yield, good heat dissipation, and high coupling efficiency with optical fiber system. It has broad application value in the fields of optical fiber communication, optical microwave, optical fiber sensing, etc., such as the mode interference ring cavity fiber laser disclosed in Chinese patent CN103852092A The sensor combines mode interference sensing and fiber laser resonance, and can be used for sensing and measuring various physical quantities such as displacement, temperature, and strain. At present, most erbium-doped fiber lasers operate in the multi-longitudinal mode state, which limits their application in high-speed optical fiber communication systems. For this reason, researchers propose to use phase-shifted fiber...
