Research and design of semiconductor laser temperature stabilization system in laser system

Abstract

The power output stability of semiconductor laser in the laser system is closely related to the working temperature. As the control precision is not high and control speed of temperature control system is slow in the laser system, this paper discusses a new temperature stabilization system. This system gets laser temperature by PT-100 temperature sensor, and uses the least squares fitting to process the temperature data, thus to ensure the temperature measurement accuracy of 0.01 ℃. And the system adjusts the temperature by PID controller whose parameter is optimized by particle swarm optimization algorithm. Simulation experiments and actual test show that of the temperature system can quickly stabilize the temperature of laser, the time of adjustment is less than 11 s. And the fluctuations of temperature is about ±0.02 ℃ after the system reaching the steady state. Compared with the traditional temperature control method, the system can achieve self-tuning of parameters and automatically adjust the temperature, the laser temperature in the high-power laser system has a good stability.
