The excellent features mainly benefit from a triple-ring subring cavity constructed by three optical couplers nested one another and a fiber Fabry-Pérot tunable filter which can be driven by a constant voltage or a periodic sweep voltage for fixed or wavelength-swept operation, respectively. The proposed EDFL has potential applications in high-resolution spectroscopy and fiber optic sensing.展开更多

By virtue of the excellent saturable absorption ability of graphene, the linewidths of the lasing wavelengths can be effectively reduced and eventually SLM operation can be obtained. The linewidths of both wavelengths are measured to be narrower than 7.3 kHz. The obtained results suggest that the graphene would be a good candidate nonlinear optical material for applications in related photonic fields, such as SLM oscillation generation for microwave generation and optical sensing.展开更多

文摘相干探测、高精度激光测距、高分辨率光谱学、激光雷达等领域均需要频率稳定的单纵模激光。文中对种子注入TEA CO_2激光器进行了理论和实验研究。设计了通过频率稳定的种子光注入,获得单纵模TEA CO_2激光输出。进行了初步的实验研究,获得单纵模激光输出,单脉冲能量100 m J,输出光波长10.59μm(10P20),与注入种子光波长相同,并对实验结果进行了分析。本方法获得的输出激光波长、远场发散角、频率稳定度及M^2因子等均与种子光相同,即如果采用光束质量极好的种子光源,可以获得频率稳定度高且光束质量极好的大功率激光输出,对科研和国防应用借鉴意义重大。
