Output characteristics of 1 μm all-fiber MOPA structure laser

  • 摘要: 主振荡功率放大(main oscillation power amplification, MOPA)结构由于其光束质量良好和参数可调的优点,已成为高功率光纤激光器的主流设计之一。为了改善高功率掺镱光纤激光器(ytterbium-doped fiber laser, YDFL)的输出性能,提高系统的光-光转换效率,文中报道了一台基于915 nm泵浦激光器和双包层掺镱光纤(ytterbium-doped fiber, YDF)的MOPA结构全光纤高功率激光器。该高功率光纤激光器由电调制激光二极管(laser diode, LD)泵浦的种子激光器和掺镱光纤放大器(ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier, YDFA)组成。连续光(continuous wave, CW)工作模式下,激光种子源经过YDFA后,实现了中心波长为1 069.96 nm的激光输出,最大平均输出功率可达945.9 W,MOPA激光器整机的斜率效率高达74.12%,具有良好的稳健性。该研究方案对研制高功率MOPA光纤激光器具有参考意义。

     

    Abstract: The main oscillation power amplification (MOPA) structure has become one of the mainstream designs of high-power fiber laser due to its good beam quality and adjustable parameters. In order to improve the output performance of high-power ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL) and increase the optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of the system, a MOPA structure all-fiber high-power laser based on 915 nm pump laser and double clad ytterbium-doped fiber (YDF) was reported. The high-power fiber laser was composed of a seed laser pumped by an electrically modulated laser diode (LD) and a ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier (YDFA). In continuous wave (CW) mode, after the laser seed source passing through the YDFA, the laser output with the center wavelength of 1 069.96 nm was realized, and the maximum average output power was up to 945.9 W. The slope efficiency of the MOPA structure laser is as high as 74.12%, which has good robustness. The research scheme has reference significance for the development of high-power MOPA structure fiber laser.
