被动锁模掺Er3+氟化物光纤激光器理论研究

根据非线性薛定谔方程建立了基于可饱和吸收体被动锁模掺Er3+氟化物光纤激光器的理论模型，研究了中红外超短脉冲在掺Er3+氟化物光纤激光器中形成的物理机制，数值模拟了被动锁模掺Er3+氟化物光纤激光器中中红外超短脉冲的演化过程，重点分析了掺Er3+增益光纤长度，可饱和吸收体不饱和损耗对被动锁模掺Er3+氟化物光纤激光器产生中红外超短脉冲的影响，并给出了参数设置范围。研究发现:当小信号增益系数、可饱和吸收体不饱和损耗、腔内净色散量为一定值，掺Er3+氟化物光纤长度在一定范围时，才会出现稳定的锁模脉冲，且随着掺Er3+氟化物光纤长度增加脉冲宽度变窄、光谱变宽、峰值功率增高；当掺Er3+氟化物光纤长度、腔内净色散量、小信号增益系数为一定值时，可饱和吸收体不饱和损耗在一定的范围时可以得到稳定的锁模脉冲，且随着可饱和吸收体不饱和损耗的增加脉冲宽度变窄，光谱先变宽后变窄变化范围不大，峰值功率增加。

Theory study on passively mod-locked Er3+-doped fluorine fiber laser

Based on the Nonlinear Schdinger Equation(NLSE), the theoretical model of psssively mod-locked Er3+-doped fluorid fiber laser using a saturable absorber was set up, by which the mechanism of generating mi-infrared ultrashort pulse in the fiber laser was investigated. The numerical simulation focused on the evolution process of the mi-infrared ultrashort pulse in fluorine fiber laser. The impact of the Er3+:fluorine gain fiber length and the saturable absorber unsaturated loss on the generation of mod-locked pulse was analyzed in detail, and the reasonable parameter range was determined. It is found that for a given set of smal-signal gain, unsaturated loss, and net intracavity dispersion, the stable mod-locked pulses are achieved by tuning the Er3+:fluorine gain fiber length within a certain range. With increasing the Er3+:fluorine gain fiber length, the output pulse duration decreased gradually, while the increase of the spectrum width (FWHM) and the peak power are observed. Meanwhile, for a given set of Er3+:fluorine gain fiber length, net intracavity dispersion and smal-signal gain, the stable mod-locked pulses are also obtained by adjusting the saturable absorber unsaturated loss within a certain range. With the increase of the saturable absorber unsaturated loss, the output pulse duration decreases gradually, however spectral width broadens and then narrows, and peak power increases gradually.
