Experiment and analysis of piezoelectric transducer modulated laser feedback external cavity
为了研究微片激光器的光回馈效应的调制方式对激光器光灵敏度的影响,采用不同调制电压、频率驱动压电陶瓷(PZT)来调谐微片激光器外腔的方法,观察光回馈条纹幅值和灵敏度的变化情况,并结合复合腔等效模型进行了数值仿真和分析.结果表明,增大PZT调制频率,使其越靠近激光器的弛豫振荡频率,光放大效果越明显,输出幅值和PZT调制频率具有相同变化趋势;PZT调制频率不变,将140 mA抽运电流调小至出光阈值电流约100 mA,弛豫振荡峰值会逐渐靠近PZT移频调制量,能主动放大回馈光,增益可高达105;光灵敏度与PZT移频量相对弛豫振荡峰值的距离有关,两者越接近,光灵敏度则越强;经PZT调制的激光回馈系统相对声光调制,有降低成本、易于调节的优势.该研究为联动调节抽运电流和PZT调制量获得幅值合适、噪声小的光回馈条纹提供了参考.
In order to study the influence of the modulation method of the optical feedback effect of the microchip laser on the optical sensitivity of the laser,a method of driving piezoelectric transducer(PZT)with different modulation voltages and frequencies was used to tune the external cavity of the microchip laser,and the changes of the amplitude and sensitivity of the optical feedback fringe were observed.Numerical simulation and analysis based on the composite cavity equivalent model were conducted.The results show that by increasing the PZT modulation frequency so that it is closer to the relaxation oscillation frequency of the laser,the optical amplification effect becomes more obvious,and the output amplitude and PZT modulation frequency have the same trend.The PZT modulation frequency remains unchanged,and the 140 mA pump current is reduced to the light emission threshold current of about 100 mA,the relaxation oscillation peak will gradually approach the PZT frequency shift modulation amount,which can actively amplify the feedback light,and the gain can be as high as 105.The optical sensitivity is related to the distance between the PZT frequency shift amount and the relaxation oscillation peak.The closer the two are,the stronger the optical sensitivity is.The laser feedback system modulated by PZT has the advantages of lower cost and easy adjustment compared with acousto-optic modulation.This study provides a reference for jointly adjusting the pump current and PZT modulation amount to obtain optical feedback stripes with appropriate amplitude and low noise.
