1.55μm+NPRO激光器与其噪声抑制分析.pdfVIP

ABSTRACT ABSTRACT 1.55μm laser is applied widely in the field of coherent optical communication and interferometric gravity-wave detectors, due to that its wavelength is in the third communication window. Applications such as optical phase locking, coherent laser communication and detection can both benefit from the development of high efficiency, narrow line-width, low noise and single frequency laser sources at this wavelength. Non-planar ring oscillator (NPRO) has been widespread concern due to its high stability, narrow line-width, single-longitudinal-mode output and high frequency tunability. In this paper, as far as we know, we are the first one to adopt Er: glass or Cr4+ : YAG as the gain medium of monolithic non-planar ring oscillator in order to obtain low noise, norrow line-width and unidirectional traveling laser with wavelength at 1.55μm. This paper consists of four aspects as follwing: (1). The research on intensity noise of three-level energy system solid-state laser based on full quantum theory: firstly, we analyse the energy level structure of Er doped glass and Cr doped YAG; secondly, the quantum dynamic model of the interaction between the light and atoms and the quantum Langevin equation which contains the pump source, activate the atom and the cavity mode are established; in succession, we can get the equations of motion by solving the Langevin equation; Then, it is possible to simplify the equations of laser motion by means of the method of first-order approximation; next, we derive the noise transfer function and noise spectrum by using the Fourlier transform to the equations of motion, combined
