单台高功率光纤激光器输出功率有限,在工业和国防等领域最新应用上无法满足更高要求。为实现更高激光功率输出,提出了一种在高功率下保证光束质量的光纤激光光谱组束(SBC)方案。本方案结合透射光栅和反射光栅,通过多自由度反射镜组构建三维非共面光路压缩结构,显著提升了系统的紧凑性与光程密度,优化了光谱组束中的干涉光影响和热稳定问题;用殷钢材料替代铝基复合材料作为光学元件结构,同时使用光学环氧胶替代 RTV硅橡胶连接反射镜,匹配材料间线膨胀系数。组束系统降低了高功率输出时传导热效应产生的光斑劣化影响,持续输出光束质量M2小于2的高功率激光,证明了该方案组束系统的稳定性和高效性。
A single high-power fiber laser has limited output power and cannot meet higher requirements in the latest applications of industry and national defense. To achieve higher laser power output, a fiber laser spectral beam combining(SBC) scheme that ensures beam quality at high-power is proposed. This scheme combines transmission gratings and reflection gratings, and constructs a three-dimensional non coplanar optical path compression structure through a multi degree of freedom reflection mirror group, significantly improving the compactness and optical path density of the system, optimizing the interference light influence and thermal stability issues in the spectral beam group. Replace aluminum-based composite materials with invar material as the optical component structure, and use optical epoxy adhesive instead of RTV silicone rubber to connect the reflector, matching the coefficient of linear expansion between materials. The beam combining system reduces the spot degradation caused by thermal conduction during high-power output, and continuously outputs high-power lasers with beam quality M2less than 2, which proves the stability and efficiency of the beam combining system proposed in this scheme.
