Description
本发明涉及一种GHz高频飞秒激光脉冲产生装置及其方法。The invention relates to a GHz high-frequency femtosecond laser pulse generating device and a method thereof.
飞秒激光器以其极高的峰值功率、窄的脉冲宽度,在材料精细微加工、半导体行业、太阳能光伏、科学研究等领域得到了广泛的应用。飞秒激光加工最重要的特点之一是可通过抑制热影响区实现超高精度微纳加工。飞秒激光较慢的加工速度是限制其工业应用的瓶颈,通过采用GHz飞秒激光,并在脉冲串模式工作,可以在不降低加工质量的情况下显著提高加工效率,因此可以克服飞秒加工这一瓶颈。Femtosecond lasers have been widely used in the fields of fine micro-machining of materials, semiconductor industry, solar photovoltaic, scientific research, etc. due to their extremely high peak power and narrow pulse width. One of the most important features of femtosecond laser processing is that it can achieve ultra-high precision micro-nano processing by suppressing the heat-affected zone. The slow processing speed of femtosecond lasers is the bottleneck that limits their industrial applications. By using GHz femtosecond lasers and working in pulse train mode, the processing efficiency can be significantly improved without reducing the processing quality, thus overcoming the bottleneck of femtosecond processing.
获得稳定的GHz飞秒脉冲的主要方法为被动锁模,锁模激光器的腔长取决于脉冲重复频率,因此GHz飞秒谐振腔腔长非常短(<150毫米),如果采用光纤激光器实现GHz输出,腔长需要在控制100mm以内。GHz飞秒脉冲获取可以采用固体锁模激光器和光纤锁模激光器两种。专利公开号CN112864785B公开了一种高功率GHz重复频率的飞秒激光产生***,采用固体激光器获得GHz飞秒脉冲,固体激光器容易在150毫米腔长内实现被动锁模,但是因光纤耦合问题较难采用光纤放大器放大,因此激光器需要采用固体放大,无法实现全光纤化。而锁模光纤激光器因腔内多个光纤器件(波分耦合器、增益光纤、光栅等)熔接长度问题,腔长很难控制在150毫米以内,同时短腔很难实现腔内色散补偿,因此采用光纤激光器直接产生稳定的GHz飞秒脉冲激光非常困难。
The main method to obtain stable GHz femtosecond pulses is passive mode locking. The cavity length of the mode-locked laser depends on the pulse repetition frequency. Therefore, the cavity length of the GHz femtosecond resonant cavity is very short (<150 mm). If a fiber laser is used to achieve GHz output, the cavity length needs to be controlled within 100 mm. GHz femtosecond pulses can be obtained using solid-state mode-locked lasers and fiber-optic mode-locked lasers. Patent Publication No. CN112864785B discloses a high-power GHz repetition frequency femtosecond laser generation system, which uses a solid-state laser to obtain GHz femtosecond pulses. Solid-state lasers are easy to achieve passive mode locking within a cavity length of 150 mm, but due to fiber coupling problems, it is difficult to use fiber amplifiers for amplification. Therefore, the laser needs to be amplified by solid state, and full fiberization cannot be achieved. However, due to the problem of the fusion length of multiple fiber devices (wavelength division couplers, gain fibers, gratings, etc.) in the cavity of the mode-locked fiber laser, the cavity length is difficult to control within 150 mm, and it is difficult to achieve intracavity dispersion compensation in a short cavity. Therefore, it is very difficult to use a fiber laser to directly generate a stable GHz femtosecond pulse laser.

具体应用时,低频飞秒脉冲发生器1通过其可饱和吸收镜被动锁模产生低频飞秒脉冲,进入分束器一201后分为两路,其中一路经过衰减器一202进入合束器一203,另一路经过延迟器一204进入合束器一203,延迟器一204(一长度单模光纤)引入的延迟时间为脉冲频率倍频后对应的脉冲周期,衰减器一202调节光的脉冲幅值,使合束后光脉冲高度一致,脉冲稳定,合束器一203将两路激光合束实现飞秒脉冲频率翻倍;In specific applications, the low-frequency femtosecond pulse generator 1 generates low-frequency femtosecond pulses through passive mode locking of its saturable absorption mirror, and is divided into two paths after entering the beam splitter 201, one of which passes through the attenuator 202 and enters the beam combiner 203, and the other passes through the delayer 204 and enters the beam combiner 203.

The beam combiner 203 combines the two laser beams to double the femtosecond pulse frequency.
合束器一203输出的飞秒脉冲进入分束器二301后分为两路,其中一路经过衰减器二302进入合束器二303,另一路经过延迟器二304进入合束器二303,延迟器二304引入的延迟时间为脉冲频率倍频后对应的脉冲周期,衰减器二302调节光的脉冲幅值,使合束后光脉冲高度一致,脉冲稳定,合束器二303将两路激光合束实现飞秒脉冲频率再次翻倍。The femtosecond pulse output by the combiner 203 enters the beam splitter 301 and is divided into two paths, one of which passes through the attenuator 302 and enters the beam combiner 303, and the other passes through the delay 304 and enters the beam combiner 303.

采用基于可饱和吸收镜被动锁模低频飞秒脉冲激光发生器,低频飞秒脉冲通过两次以上倍频单元,实现GHz脉冲输出。低频飞秒脉冲发生器为250MHz,经过倍频单元一2后,脉冲频率变为500MHz;倍频单元二3工作原理与倍频单元一2相同,因此通过两个倍频单元,实现1GHz飞秒脉冲输出。通过增加倍频单元的数量,可以实现更高频率输出,同时为了获得1GHz频率,可以使用更低频率的飞秒脉冲发生器。衰减器可实现合束后脉冲高度一致,保证脉冲稳定性。通过两个及以上倍频单元,实现GHz飞秒激光脉冲,后续通过采用光纤放大器进行放大实现高功率输出,实现高功率GHz飞秒激光器全光纤化。A low-frequency femtosecond pulse laser generator based on passive mode locking of a saturable absorber mirror is used. The low-frequency femtosecond pulse passes through more than two frequency doubling units to achieve GHz pulse output. The low-frequency femtosecond pulse generator is 250MHz. After passing through frequency doubling unit 1-2, the pulse frequency becomes 500MHz; the working principle of frequency doubling unit 2-3 is the same as that of frequency doubling unit 1-2, so 1GHz femtosecond pulse output is achieved through two frequency doubling units. By increasing the number of frequency doubling units, higher frequency output can be achieved. At the same time, in order to obtain a frequency of 1GHz, a lower frequency femtosecond pulse generator can be used. The attenuator can achieve high consistency of pulses after beam combining and ensure pulse stability. Through two or more frequency doubling units, GHz femtosecond laser pulses are achieved, and high-power output is achieved by subsequently amplifying with a fiber amplifier, thus realizing full fiberization of high-power GHz femtosecond lasers.
