Abstract

The invention discloses a Mach-Zehnder modulated resonant cavity sensor based on the vernier effect, which comprises an SOI substrate composed of a silicon base layer, a silicon dioxide layer and a single crystal silicon layer sequentially stacked and bonded from bottom to top, and the SOI substrate The single crystal silicon layer contains the U-shaped waveguide and the ring resonator in the same plane. The Mach-Zehnder modulated resonant cavity sensor of the present invention adopts the sensing structure of the cascaded double Mach-Zehnder interferometer and the ring resonant cavity to carry out secondary modulation on the ring resonant cavity, so that the Mach-Zehnder interferometer and the ring resonant cavity The spectrum is effectively superimposed together, which can improve the alignment accuracy based on the vernier effect, thereby effectively improving the sensitivity of the device and realizing the detection of a large dynamic range. In addition, the use of this structured integration can not only reduce the overall size of the device, facilitate the miniaturization and arraying of the device, but also significantly expand the quasi-free spectral range of the device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the detection technology of specific chemical or biological substances such as gas molecules or biomolecules, specifically relates to the field of photobiochemical sensing technology, and particularly relates to a Mach-Zehnder modulated resonant cavity sensor based on the vernier effect. Background technique [0002] Since entering the 21st century, with the rapid development of science and technology, people's living standards have been continuously improved, but at the same time, more and more environmental problems have become increasingly prominent. In aspects closely related to one's own health, such as environmental monitoring, disease treatment, etc., the safety requirements for food, medicine, and water quality have also increased significantly. At the same time, on the military battlefield, biological and chemical weapons, as a new type of intelligent weapon, are gradually applied to modern warfare. Therefore, there i...
