双环、三纤互耦全光纤熔锥滤波器用正常色散的双折射光纤所作的暗孤子开关的开关条件

通过将熔锥结构中强、弱耦合段的总幅度耦合系数与滤波网络方程中的幅度耦合系数等效的方法,定量分析了双环、三纤互耦滤波器的频谱特性。实验滤波器通带特性的测试结果与理论分析基本吻合。所测滤波器的中心波长、抑制度、半功率带宽及插入损耗分别为1.27 μm,>13 dB、72 μm及3.9 dB。在正常色散的双折射光纤中传输的暗孤子对之间由于耦合周期性交换能量,一个暗孤子可把能量完全转给另一暗孤子,因此双折射光纤可作光开关。本文讨论了椭圆角为35°的双折射光纤的开关条件,发现脉冲只有以特定的极化角入射才有开关现象产生,而且建立了光纤长度与孤子对相差、初始能量差的解释关系。

An all-fiber Yb-doped Q-switched fiber ring laser system is reported. The laser system uses an all-fiber M-Z interferometer which plays both roles of Qswitch and tunable filter. Theoretical analysis and primary experimental results are given. A continuous tuning range 6fover 7 nm (from 1035 nm to 1042 nm) and a very stable pulse train with repetition rates exceeding 3 kHz and pulse width of 1.1μs were obtained.

Supercontinuum generation in seven-core photonic crystal fiber pumped by a broadband picosecond pulsed fiber amplifier

We report a supercontinuum source generated in seven-core photonic crystal fibers(PCFs) pumped by a self-made all-fiber picosecond pulsed broadband fiber amplifier. The amplifier's output average power is 60 W at 1150 nm with spectral width of 260 nm, and its repetition rate is 8.47 MHz with pulse width of 221 ps. With two different lengths of seven-core PCF, different output powers and spectra are obtained. When a 10 m long seven-core PCF is chosen, the output supercontinuum covers the wavelength range from 620 nm to 1700 nm, with the output power of 11.7 W. With only 2 m long seven-core PCF used in the same experiment, the wavelength of the supercontinuum spans from 680 nm to 1700 nm,with the output power of 20.4 W. The results show that the pulse width is 385 ps in the 10 m long seven-core PCF and 255 ps in the 2 m long one, respectively, due to the normal dispersion of the PCF.     

All-Fiber Spectroscope with Second-Order Fiber Bragg Grating for Rotational Raman Lidar

Owing to the second-order fiber Bragg grating possessing narrower reflectivity bandwidth than first-order, an all-fiber spectroscopic filter with several second-order fiber Bragg gratings and optical fiber couplers in the visible region is designed to extract interest rotational Raman spectra. Considering the inference fringe visibility of inscribing fiber Bragg grating and the fiber core index dispersion effect, numerical simulations are made by the improved mathematical model based on an exponential photorefractive dynamic, and its simulative results show better agreement with the experimental data. We propose an all-fiber spectroscopic configuration, which could balance lidar sensitivity against signal-to-noise ratio for optimizing remote sensing performance by fiber Bragg gratings serially. Simulative results show that the thumb principle for fabricating second-order fiber Bragg grating is the increasing gratings length, and that this all-fiber spectroscope can achieve >70 dB suppression to elastic scattering and efficiently extract the rotational Raman signal for profiling atmospheric temperature.
