Abstract:

In order to realize the dual-wave length lasing based on stimulated Raman scattering principle, the dual-wavelength single-mode optical fiber Raman laser is established. Firstly, 80m long G652b single-model quartz fiber is pumped by Nd3+:YAG solid pulse laser, and its output spectra when without grating which are measured and studied. Then, a linear external-cavity fiber laser is designed with fiber Bragg grating as mirrors to gain 1062nm and 1066.5nm laser output. To change pump energy (65.2uJ~100.4uJ), the mean-variances of energy percentages are all about 7.58%,and dual-wavelength energy ratio is close to 1:1. Pump pulse widths are close to 32.14ns. Finally, the main parameters of laser are analyzed too. The dual-wavelength single-mode optical fiber Raman laser can be applied to Raman amplifier filed.
