128 W单频线偏振光纤放大器特性研究

高功率单频激光在激光雷达、光谱学、精密测量等领域具有广阔的应用前景.采用中心波长为1064 nm、光谱线宽为20 kHz、偏振消光比（PER）高于20 dB的单频线偏振分布式反馈光纤激光器做种子源（尾纤输出功率约为10 mW）,利用种子注入主振荡功率光纤放大技术,通过两级级联放大实现了128 W高功率单频、线偏振、近衍射极限单模连续激光输出.主放大器光-光效率达到83%,PER高于12 dB.采用分段温控技术有效地提高了光纤中的受激布里渊散射（SBS）阈值,实验中未观察到明显的放大自发辐射和SBS现象,进 关键词： 掺Yb光纤放大器 主振荡功率光纤放大 单频 线偏振     

All-fiber,high power single-frequency linearly polarized ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier

We report an all-fiber high power,single frequency large-mode area (LMA) linearly polarized ytterbiumdoped fiber amplifiers (YDFA) module,which is based on the master oscillator multi-stage power amplifiers (MOPA).The maximum output power is 43.8 W at a wavelength of 1064 nm when 60-W launched pump light is coupled,with high slope efficiency of 88%,polarization extinction rate (PER) >17.2 dB and nearly diffraction-limited beam quality (M 2 <1.1).
