摘要
我们提出了一种盘绕和锥形分级指数少模光纤(FMF)偏振控制器(PC),作为全光纤激光器中的可饱和吸收体(SA)。我们在腔内使用 40 厘米长的锥形分级指数 FMF,获得了信噪比(SNR)为 65 dB 的 845 fs 超短脉冲。光谱以 1588.2 nm 为中心,3 dB 光谱带宽为 4.04 nm。此外,在腔内泵浦功率为 140 至 360 mW 之间,还观察到 Q 开关模式锁定状态。这些结果进一步证明了盘绕锥形分级索引 FMF PC 作为稳定高能超短脉冲形成 SA 的应用,并提供了一种产生超短脉冲的技术方法。
Stable Ultrashort Pulse Generation Using a Coiled and Tapered Few-Mode-Fiber Polarization Controller as a Saturable Absorber
We present a coiled and tapered graded-index few-mode-fiber (FMF) polarization controller (PC) as a saturable absorber (SA) in an all-fiber laser. We obtain the 845 fs ultrashort pulse with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 65 dB, using a tapered graded-index FMF of 40 cm in the cavity. The spectrum is centered at 1588.2 nm with a 3 dB spectral bandwidth of 4.04 nm. Furthermore, a Q-switched mode-locked state is observed between 140 and 360 mW of the pump power in the cavity. The results further demonstrate the application of a coiled and tapered graded-index FMF PC as a SA for stable high-energy ultrashort pulse formation and provide a technical method for generating ultrashort pulses.
