Abstract
In this research, the performance of thulium-doped fiber lasers is analyzed and a mathematical model is established. Thulium-doped fiber amplifiers are the focus of this article. A large number of simulations have been carried out in the MATLAB simulation environment, and the main work and innovation points are as follows: firstly, the energy level structure characteristics of thulium were studied, and its spectral characteristics were analyzed. After consulting some information, 3H4 to 3H6 energy level has been selected in modeling. Secondly, use the rate equations and the power propagation equations to provide a theoretical analysis of the pumping mode of thulium-doped fiber lasers. And a mathematical model of a thulium-doped fiber laser was established. The parameters such as fiber length and doping concentration in the model are discussed. Finally, to find the appropriate parameters, the genetic optimization algorithm is used to optimize the fiber length and doping concentration, and then we can get the parameters corresponding to the maximum output power of the thulium-doped fiber amplifier.
