Taking the four wavelengths of λ1, λ2, λ3 and λ4 incident on the optical multiplexer 440 as an example, the λ1 signal light enters the optical multiplexer 440 through the first light entrance, and passes through six different positions in the optical multiplexer 440 for six different times. The reflection reaches the light exit port; the λ2 signal light enters the optical multiplexer 440 through the second light entrance port, undergoes four different reflections at four different positions in the optical multiplexer 440 and reaches the light exit port; the λ3 signal light passes through the third entrance light The signal light enters the optical multiplexer 440, undergoes two different reflections at two different positions in the optical multiplexer 440, and reaches the light exit port; the λ4 signal light enters the optical multiplexer 440 through the fourth light entrance port, and is directly transmitted to the light exit port.

在一些实施例中,光合波器440与光准直器460的入光面之间存在间隙,光合波器440输出的复合光束传输至光准直器460的入光面时,因光在不同介质的界面传播会发生反射,复合光束传输至光准直器460的入光面时发生反射,反射光束可能会按照原路返回至激光器410,影响激光器410的高频性能。In some embodiments, there is a gap between the optical multiplexer 440 and the light incident surface of the optical collimator 460.

When the focusing lens and the single-mode fiber flange are inserted into the casing, in order to improve the coupling between the focusing lens and the single-mode fiber flange, the focusing lens and the single-mode fiber flange can only be moved axially.
为方便透过光隔离器440a的复合光束射入聚焦透镜内,聚焦透镜突出于套管外,减小了聚焦透镜的入光面与光隔离器440a的出光面之间的距离,使得结构更紧凑。In order to facilitate the composite light beam passing through the optical isolator 440a to be injected into the focusing lens, the focusing lens protrudes outside the sleeve, reducing the distance between the light incident surface of the focusing lens and the light exit surface of the optical isolator 440a, making the structure more compact. compact.
在另外一些实施例中,也可以将圆柱形透镜与单模光纤法兰分开放置,这时圆柱形透镜将改为矩形透镜以方便安装,而且透镜的位置需要进行单独调整以达到耦合的目的。In other embodiments, the cylindrical lens can also be placed separately from the single-mode fiber flange. In this case, the cylindrical lens will be changed to a rectangular lens to facilitate installation, and the position of the lens needs to be adjusted separately to achieve coupling purposes.
