    摘要: An optical amplifier repeater system includes an optical fiber propagating a light beam in a plurality of propagation modes and an optical amplifier repeater amplifying the light beam propagated through the optical fiber. The optical amplifier repeater includes an optical demultiplexer demultiplexing the light beam in the plurality of propagation modes propagated through the optical fiber into a plurality of single-mode light beams, an optical amplifier amplifying, by simultaneous pumping, intensities of the plurality of single-mode light beams using a light beam generated by one pumping light source, an optical multiplexer multiplexing the plurality of single-mode light beams amplified by the optical amplifier into a light beam in the plurality of propagation modes, and an optical intensity adjusting unit adjusting the intensity of each of the plurality of single-mode light beams at least one of before or after the amplification by the optical amplifier. The optical intensity adjusting unit performs the adjustment by amplifying or attenuating the optical intensity of each of the plurality of single-mode light beams in an individual optical path through which the single-mode light beam is propagated.

    摘要: A light source employed in a coherent Raman scattering (CRS) spectroscopic apparatus or a CRS microscope includes a chromium forsterite laser (CrFL), a variable delay optical path configured to delay one optical pulse of branched optical pulses obtained by dividing an optical pulse from the CrFL according to a power, a highly nonlinear waveguide into which the other optical pulse of the branched optical pulses is input, a first wavelength filter connected to an output of the highly nonlinear waveguide, an ytterbium-doped glass fiber optical amplifier (YbFA) connected to an output of the wavelength filter, and a second wavelength filter connected to an output of the YbFA. The light source includes a one-optical path mode in which two wavelength bands corresponding to Raman scattering wavenumbers to be used for measurement are selected from an output of the variable delay optical path, and a two-optical path mode in which an output of the variable delay optical path and an output of the second wavelength filter are time-synchronized.

    摘要: A tunable, modulated high-frequency light beam from a single source of coherent light. An ultra-short pulse of coherent light, having an optical spectrum, is derived from a single source. Spreading the optical spectrum of the ultra-short pulse of coherent light forms a spectrally spread optical pulse which is thereafter split into two or more spectrally spread optical pulses. At least one of the two or more spectrally spread optical pulses is delayed, such that, upon recombining the two or more spectrally spread optical pulses a tunable, modulated spectrally spread optical pulse is formed.
