Problems solved by technology

Among them, the method of periodically modulating the loss in the laser cavity based on suppressing the birefringence effect is the most widely used, but this technology relies on applying periodic mechanical stress to the fiber, which is likely to cause mechanical damage to the fiber itself under long-term laser operation, and the laser pulse The modulation effect is more sensitive to the applied stress, resulting in poor environmental stability of the technical solution

Abstract

The invention discloses an all-fiber single-frequency pulse laser, which is characterized in that an active fiber which is introduced into a composite cavity structure and has a laser wavelength absorption characteristic is used as a saturable absorber, so that ultra-narrow-band filtering and all-fiber passive Q-switching are realized, and a single-frequency pulse all-fiber laser oscillator is obtained. According to the invention, while the frequency selection capability of the resonant cavity is enhanced, the strict requirement of single-frequency laser on the cavity length of the composite cavity is reduced, and the operation stability of a laser single longitudinal mode is improved, periodically changing cavity loss is introduced, all-fiber passive Q-switching is realized, and a single-frequency pulse all-fiber laser oscillator is obtained; the problems that an existing single-frequency pulse fiber laser is limited in working wavelength, low in laser power level and the like are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lasers, in particular to an all-fiber single-frequency pulsed laser. Background technique [0002] Single-frequency pulsed fiber lasers have important application requirements in the fields of coherent radar, laser remote sensing, and nonlinear optical frequency conversion due to their narrow linewidth, high beam quality, high system integration, and maintenance-free advantages. The generation methods of single-frequency pulsed laser can be mainly divided into two types: external modulation and internal modulation. The external modulation method can drive single-frequency semiconductor lasers by electrical pulse signals, gain switching technology of short-cavity single-frequency fiber lasers pumped by optical pulses, and use active Q-switching devices such as acousto-optic or electro-optical devices to realize the transformation of single-frequency lasers from continuous wave operation to Pulse operation. However...
