Abstract

The invention discloses a temperature / refractive index two-parameter sensor based on cascading coupled micro-cavities. The two-parameter sensor comprises a broadband light source, a bus waveguide, a first coupled micro-cavity, a second coupled micro-cavity and an optical detector. The broadband light source, the bus waveguide, the first coupled micro-cavity, the second coupled micro-cavity and the optical detector are in coupling connection from the left to right in sequence; and the first coupled micro-cavity and the second coupled micro-cavity are arranged at the same side of the bus waveguide, and are coupled to the bus waveguide through an evanescent field effect. The first coupled micro-cavity and the second coupled micro-cavity have different resonant wavelengths and different optical field energy distribution proportions; the first coupled micro-cavity has relatively higher refractive index response sensitivity, while the second coupled micro-cavity has relatively higher temperature response sensitivity; and by utilizing the significant difference of the two micro-cavities on the aspects of refractive index response sensitivity and temperature response sensitivity, refractive index and temperature information can be obtained simultaneously in one measurement process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optoelectronic devices, in particular to a temperature / refractive index dual-parameter sensor based on cascaded coupled microcavities. Background technique [0002] Refractive index and temperature are two very important parameters in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines. The refractive index of the liquid has a direct and close relationship with the material composition and composition concentration of the liquid. It has become a common analytical measurement method to infer the component concentration by measuring the refractive index of the liquid sample; temperature is a reflection of the activity of biological substances and the biochemical reaction rate. , an important indicator of the process. Therefore, the precise measurement of the refractive index and temperature is of great significance in the fields of chemical production, food testing, biomedicine, and environmental monitor...
