Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical gyroscopes and is a design method for a high-sensitivity micro-optical gyroscope based on high-order non-Hermitian singular characteristics. Background Art

[0002] Gyroscopes play a key role in inertial navigation systems and have a wide range of applications in both commercial and military fields. The development of consumer smart devices, micro-drones and micro-satellites has highlighted the huge demand for highly accurate, compact and integrated optical gyroscopes, and a large amount of research is currently devoted to the development of chip-scale optical gyroscopes. Resonant micro-optical gyroscopes (RMOGs) feature a small ring resonator or chip-based configuration, and their accuracy is independent of the ring length. Therefore, RMOGs have become the preferred solution for integrated optical gyroscopes. However, in traditional RMOGs, the resonance splitting caused by the Sagnac effect is directly related to the linear size of the device, resulting in unsatisfactory accuracy levels. For example, an RMOG with a radius of 5 mm, a wavelength of 1.55 μm, and a rotation speed of about 1° / h has a Sagnac frequency splitting of about 0.02 Hz, while many practical applications require the measurement of angular velocities in the range of 0.1–100° / h. In a fully integrated optical platform, the area of ​​the loop is usually smaller, which may be several orders of magnitude smaller, so achieving such a sensitivity level in a fully integrated optical platform faces great challenges.

[0003] Since the pioneering work of Bender et al., there has been great interest in singular points (EP) in non-Hermitian systems, especially for sensor applications. Bender et al. demonstrated a special form of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian that exhibits real eigenvalues ​​under the joint manipulation of parity (P) and time (T) operators. The EP is an interesting property of these parity-time (PT) symmetric systems, where the eigenvalues ​​of the system and their corresponding eigenvectors are simultaneously degenerate. The strong spectral response of the eigenvalues ​​near the EP has inspired many research works for sensing applications.

[0004] In a non-Hermitian system of order 2×2 operating at the EP, the splitting of the eigenvalues ​​is proportional to the square root of the applied perturbation, and thus the system shows enhanced sensitivity to small perturbations. In general, higher-order EPs are expected to achieve substantial enhancements in light-matter interactions beyond existing fundamental limits, a feature that makes them particularly attractive. Specifically, for an N-order EP (EP) consisting of N distinct eigenvalues ​​and associated eigenstates, N ), when a disturbance of magnitude ε acts on the system, its response is However, implementing high-order EP in existing schemes is a rather difficult task due to the complexity and sensitivity of manufacturing defects. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a high-sensitivity micro-optical gyroscope design method based on high-order non-Hermitian singular characteristics. First, by constructing an inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity, the asymmetric coupling of the resonant cavity is used to expand the second-order non-Hermitian system to a fourth-order system without increasing the difficulty of parameter control; then, by embedding a π-phase-shifted Bragg grating in the inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity, a high-sensitivity Sagnac effect output is achieved. Based on this, the present invention provides a high-sensitivity micro-optical gyroscope design method based on high-order non-Hermitian singular characteristics.

[0132] A method for designing a high-sensitivity micro-optical gyroscope based on high-order non-Hermitian singular characteristics, characterized in that the step 1 is specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the active inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity and the passive inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity have exactly the same shape, and are both connected by two asymmetric lobes through a cross. The cross is ideal, and the light mode can only pass through it in a straight line, and no other modes are excited in the cross waveguide. The PT symmetric system is constructed by direct coupling between the active inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity and the passive inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity.

[0133] A method for designing a high-sensitivity micro-optical gyroscope based on high-order non-Hermitian singular characteristics, characterized in that the step 2 is specifically as shown in step 1, both lobes of the active inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity are coupled to a straight waveguide, and the two coupling rates between the lobes and the straight waveguide are μL and μR respectively. Like the traditional ring resonator, the inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity also supports two counter-propagating optical modes α and β. The characteristic of α is that whenever it passes near the area coupled with the straight waveguide, it points to the center of the resonant cavity, that is, to the intersection of the two lobes, while the latter propagation mode β passes through the inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity in the opposite direction. The two modes interact differently with the straight waveguide. When the optical signal is coupled to the straight waveguide, α is excited first, and then β is excited, and it is independent of the excitation direction. Only α can transfer energy to β through the straight waveguide. When α is coupled to the straight waveguide, it propagates to another coupling area and excites β; on the contrary, when β is coupled to the straight waveguide, it can only propagate outward from the inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity. Therefore, the coupling coefficient connecting α to β is not equal to zero, while the coupling coefficient connecting β to α is equal to zero. Through the two coupling excitations with the straight waveguide, there are four transmission modes in the two coupled resonant cavities. Therefore, in the case of only two resonant cavities, the second-order system is adjusted to a fourth-order system by utilizing the two couplings between the straight waveguide and the inverted 8-shaped resonant cavity.

[0140] The characteristic frequency of the system can be obtained from formula (1), which is expressed as:

[0141]

[0142] Where γ1=(γ G +μ R +μ L ) / 2,γ2=γ L / 2, κ EP =(γ2-γ1) / 2 represents the coupling coefficient that adjusts the system to the EP. At the EP, all four eigenfrequencies and their corresponding eigenvectors are degenerate simultaneously.
