Abstract

The present invention relates to a wet chemical metallizing process for a quartz fiber grating surface, which forms an inorganic coating layer with micropores and microcracks on a smooth quartz glass fiber grating surface. After the coating layer forming a 'lock effect' is processed by drying, and opening micropores and microcracks are formed on the coating layer so as to reach the goal of roughening, because moisture and other organic solvent are vaporized. After the fiber grating surface forms an inorganic multipore coating layer for roughening, palladium chloride is activated, and fiber gratings with the inorganic multipore coating layer on the surface is immerged in palladium chloride aqueous solution. The palladium chloride aqueous solution soaks in cavities and the microcracks of the inorganic coating layer, and the surface of the inorganic coating layer is provided with O<-> dangling bonds; because of the action of electrostatic attraction, Pd<2+> ion is absorbed on inner walls of the cavities and the microcracks at the inorganic coating layer. After processed by roughening and deacidized with hydrogen gas or sodium borohydride water solution, the fiber gratings can be chemically plated with nickel and gold, and a plating layer surface which is plated is even and bright; the plating layer has strong adhesive force and weldability, and the present invention is an effective method adapting to the metallization of the fiber grating surface.

Description

Wet chemical metallizing process for quartz optical fiber grating surface
Technical field:
The invention belongs to the technology that quartz optical fiber grating surface is coated with ni-p alloy coating and metal level with wet chemical method.
Prior art:
The quartz glass optical fiber of mixing germanium and carrying hydrogen forms grating through Ultra-Violet Laser irradiation in fiber core, this grating is called as fiber grating.Fiber grating has become the important optical device of optical fiber communication and sensory field of optic fibre.Fiber grating need carry out gluing fixing when optical fiber communication and sensory field of optic fibre are used usually, or welds behind its surface metalation it is fixed.
Fiber grating is that the quartz glass optical fiber that adopts Ultra-Violet Laser irradiation to mix germanium and year hydrogen is made, and the essence of fiber grating surface metalation is exactly the quartz glass surface metalation.Because the quartz glass smooth surface forms the coat of metal and acquires a certain degree of difficulty; Fibre diameter is very little, and is easily broken after peelling off surperficial organic protection layer; Fiber grating generally is the middle part that is made in long one section optical fiber, therefore can not take the method for plating on general workpiece to operate; Be coated with on the fiber grating surface in the process if deal with improperly, will produce stress in the optical fiber, the optical parametric of grating will change and lose using value.
Existing technology is with the fine surface coarsening of quartz glass, and the method that adopts is with containing F usually -Or H 2SiF 6Aqueous solution (volume ratio is generally HF: H 2SiF 6: H 2O=1: 1: 2) the quartz glass optical fiber surface is corroded, thereby make the quartz glass optical fiber surface coarsening, but this method of roughening has very big damage to the fiber grating surface, its tensile strength is reduced, and fracture easily, also be not easy to welding simultaneously, the conventional chemical plating will be passed through this step of stannous chloride sensitization usually in addition, owing to the easy oxidation in air of stannous chloride sensitizing solution was lost efficacy, thus can only use at short notice, thereby make troubles to continued operation.
Summary of the invention:
The present invention seeks to adopt the method that forms inorganic porous coating at quartz optical fiber grating surface to make its alligatoring, both formed the inorganic coating of band micropore and micro-crack on the surface of smooth quartz glass optical fiber grating, can form " snap close effect " and to also not causing damage in the fiber grating surface, owing to be to adopt wet chemical method to form coating on the quartz glass optical fiber surface, coating is after dried, because moisture content and other organic solvent evaporations, to form opening micropore and micro-crack on the coating, thereby reach the purpose of alligatoring.The fiber grating surface forms inorganic porous coating and after the alligatoring, activates with palladium bichloride again.Have the fiber grating of inorganic porous coating to immerse in the palladium chloride aqueous solution on the surface, palladium chloride aqueous solution will infiltrate in the hole and micro-crack of inorganic coating, and the inorganic coating surface has-0 -Unsettled strong, since the effect of electrostatic attraction, Pd 2+Ion will be adsorbed onto on the inwall of inorganic coating hole and micro-crack.After the palladium bichloride activation, reduce with hydrogen or sodium borohydride aqueous solution, adopt the method for hydrogen reducing to be, fast fiber grating is transferred in the container, prevent that palladium chloride aqueous solution on the fiber grating surface inorganic coating is at air drying, feed hydrogen rapidly, the maintenance regular hour can be with Pd behind the shutoff hydrogen 2+Reduction, quartz optical fiber grating is taken out in the reduction back, washes coating repeatedly with deionized water, removes the not firm Pd of surface adsorption, is that the method for available electroless plating is coated with ni-p alloy coating after the drying.Adopt sodium borohydride aqueous solution reduction Pd 2+Method be, after from palladium chloride aqueous solution, taking out quartz optical fiber grating, wash inorganic coating slightly with sodium borohydride aqueous solution, it is dry to put into drying box, prepares sodium borohydride aqueous solution then, and the fiber grating that drying is crossed is put into sodium borohydride aqueous solution and soaked, soak the back and take out quartz optical fiber grating, wash coating repeatedly with deionized water, remove the not firm Pd of surface adsorption, dry back is coated with ni-p alloy coating in its surface chemistry.
The present invention compares with the technology of using always now, has following characteristics:
1, with colloidal sol alligatoring is carried out on the fiber grating surface, can be avoided severe corrosive solution that the fiber grating surface is caused damage and reduced its tensile strength, can strengthen the adhesion of palladium particle simultaneously, thereby strengthen the adhesion of the coat of metal;
2, unsettled being good for by electrostatic attraction of inorganic coating surface-0-attracts Pd2+, and Pd2+ penetrates in inorganic coating hole and the micro-crack, can firm attachment also play catalytic action on inorganic coating after the reduction; " the snap close effect " of inorganic coating hole and micro-crack is obvious, and the adhesion on metal level that is coated with and fiber grating surface obviously is better than the adhesion of conventional method.
