Abstract

Fiber laser has many advantages. First of all, fiber lasers are relatively simple in structure, with fewer components than traditional solid state lasers, smaller volume, and easy to integrate into a small area. In addition, the energy conversion efficiency of fiber lasers is very high. The gain medium is rare earth doped glass, which is rich and cheap. Rare earth doped glass has very high beam quality and is widely used in industry, agriculture, laser communication, atmospheric detection, remote sensing, laser radar, medical surgery and other fields. Now fiber laser has become the mainstream of laser technology development and the main technology of laser industry application. Tm doped silica fiber lasers have been studied. The gain spectrum range of Tm ions is very wide, and its emission wavelength can cover 1800nm-2100nm. This range is just near the peak of the absorption spectrum of water molecules, which has great application value. This paper analyzes the structural characteristics of Tm doped fiber lasers, designs a new type of Tm doped silica fiber lasers, gives the equation of laser pulse, and then simulates the laser to obtain the mode locked pulse of the laser. The simulation results show that the designed Tm doped silica fiber lasers are feasible.
