Abstract

The invention discloses a novel multi-axis optical accelerometer which comprises a supporting structure, an elastic beam, a testing mass block, movable photonic crystal beams, fixed photonic crystal beams, connecting optical fibers, a variable optical attenuator, an optical fiber polarization controller, a balance optical detector and an electronic spectrum analyzer, wherein the testing mass block can respectively achieve acceleration signal detection on the X axis and the Y axis. Acceleration detection in the X axis direction and the Y axis direction is bidirectional acceleration detection only for the plane, and the detection is carried out by the testing mass block supported by a corresponding supporting structure. A corresponding detection edge of the testing mass block forms cavity-shaped structures by means of the silicon nitride photonic crystal beams manufactured through a micromachining process, and the crystal beam relative displacement changes produced by acceleration are converted into changes of detection optical signals. Photonic crystal cavities in different directions have no effect on acceleration signal detection in the directions. According to the optical accelerometer, the changes of the detection optical signals are converted into acceleration of a measurement carrier through a detection module, so the optical accelerator has the advantages of being high in measurement precision, resistant to electromagnetic interference, and the like.
