研究目的
To enhance the mode-hop-free synchronous tuning characteristics of an external-cavity diode laser by dynamic mode matching of internal and external cavities.
研究成果
The dynamic mode matching method using an LRC filter significantly improved the MHF tuning range of the ECDL at high-frequency tuning, achieving a maximum wavelength tuning rate of 6.21 THz/s at 30 Hz. This approach is cost-effective and does not require complex control circuitry.
研究不足
The method's effectiveness is limited to the ascent stage of triangular wave tuning due to nonlinearities in the internal and external cavities. Future work could explore compensating these nonlinearities for MHF tuning in the whole tuning process.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved designing an ECDL with a Littman external-cavity configuration and implementing a dynamic mode matching method using an LRC filter to control the internal-cavity mode.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A commercially available LD with a center wavelength of 785 nm was used. The optical frequency and output power were measured using a wavemeter and a photodiode detector, respectively.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a Thorlabs L785P090 LD, a diffraction grating, a right angle prism, a PZT, a thermoelectric cooler, and a thermal resistor.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The ECDL was tuned by applying a voltage to the PZT, with the LD temperature stabilized and injection current set. The LRC filter was used to adjust the LD injection current for dynamic mode matching.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The response of the ECDL to the LRC filter was analyzed to determine the improvement in MHF tuning range and wavelength tuning rate.
