摘要
基于掺镱光纤激光放大器理论模型,分析了光纤放大器中掺镱光纤弯曲半径对模式传输损耗的影响以及掺镱光纤长度对系统光-光转换效率的影响。结合实验中采用的掺镱光纤的特点,对掺镱光纤的弯曲半径及光纤长度进行了优化设计。基于主振荡放大结构中,种子光源的输出功率为170 W,光束质量为 M2x=1.10, M2y=1.05;放大器采用双端抽运的方式,使用自研30/600 μm掺镱光纤,最终实现了输出功率为10.14 kW,中心波长为1070.36 nm,3 dB带宽为5.32 nm的全光纤激光输出,光束质量为 M2x=3.12, M2y=3.18。放大级最大光-光转换效率为87.9%,斜率效率为89.2%,输出激光信噪比大于45 dB。
Based on the theoretical model of ytterbium (Yb 3+)-doped fiber amplifier, the effect of the bend radius of Yb 3+ fiber on the mode transmission loss and dependence of optical-optical efficiency on the fiber length were analyzed. By employing the characteristics of the Yb 3+ fiber used in the experiment, the bend radius and fiber length were optimized. A master oscillation power amplification configuration was used. This configuration had a seed laser source with 170 W power, beam quality M2x=1.10, M2y=1.05, and a power amplifier with homemade 30/600 μm Yb 3+ fiber as the gain fiber. Dual-end pumping was adopted. We obtained a laser beam with an output power of 10.14 kW, a central wavelength of 1070.36 nm, and a 3 dB bandwidth of 5.32 nm. The beam quality of the output laser was M2x=3.12, M2y=3.18. In the amplification stage, the maximum optical-optical efficiency was 87.9%, and the slope efficiency reached up to 89.2%. The signal-to-noise ratio of the output laser was more than 45 dB.
