[0002] Optical gyroscopes are sensors used to measure the angular velocity of carrier platforms. They are currently widely used in aerospace, military weapons, earthquake monitoring and many other fields. However, with the rapid development of modern carrier platforms such as micro-satellites, intelligent ammunition, drones and smart driving cars, gyroscopes with high sensitivity, wide-band response, integration, chip-based and low-cost advantages have become an important demand. Silicon-based monolithic integrated optical gyroscopes compatible with CMOS technology have great potential in integrated chip-based and production costs, but their low sensitivity greatly limits the promotion and application of such gyroscopes. Therefore, new high-sensitivity demodulation methods are of great scientific significance to the research on silicon-based monolithic integrated optical gyroscopes.
[0003] Silicon-based monolithic integrated optical microsystems are compatible with CMOS technology and are often used in the production of temperature, magnetic field and other parameter sensing systems. At present, the heterogeneous integration process of silicon-based chips and III-V light sources and photodetectors is very mature. Silicon-based monolithic integrated optical gyroscope solutions have been reported from time to time, and angular motion sensing has been achieved in a very small volume. However, the sensitivity of the existing demodulation method is still low, which greatly limits the promotion and application of integrated optical gyroscopes. Summary of the invention

[0044] The technical solution of the present invention is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0045] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the present invention more clear, a detailed description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0046] The embodiment of the present invention provides an angular velocity sensing method and system based on dual silicon-based micro-ring resonant demodulation, such as Figure 1 The structure diagram of the angular velocity sensing system based on dual silicon-based micro-ring resonant demodulation is shown, and the sensing system of the present invention includes:
[0047] Driving circuit 1, on-chip light source 2, input grating 3, first silicon-based micro-ring 4, silicon-based sensing ring 5, second silicon-based micro-ring 6, modulation circuit 7, output grating 8, on-chip detector 9, demodulation circuit 10;
[0048] The on-chip light source 2 is driven by the driving circuit 1, and the emitted broadband light is coupled into the on-chip silicon-based optical waveguide through the input grating 3;
[0049] When light is transmitted to the first optical waveguide of the first silicon-based microring 4, it enters the first silicon-based microring 4 in the form of evanescent wave coupling and generates resonance in the microring; wherein the first optical waveguide is located at the light input side of the first silicon-based microring 4;
[0050] The light in the resonant frequency band passes through the first silicon-based microring 4 and outputs narrowband light, and enters the second optical waveguide of the first silicon-based microring 4 through evanescent wave coupling; wherein the second optical waveguide is located at the light output side of the first silicon-based microring 4;
[0051] The narrowband light enters the silicon-based sensor ring 5 through the optical waveguide. When the silicon-based sensor ring 5 rotates, the output light frequency shifts with the rotation of the sensor ring.
[0052] After passing through the silicon-based sensing ring 5, the narrowband light enters the second silicon-based micro-ring 6 through evanescent wave coupling. Under the control of the electric field of the modulation circuit 7, the resonant channel of the silicon-based micro-ring shifts; when the channel matches the signal, resonant demodulation is achieved and an intensity modulated signal is output;
[0053] The optical signal output by the second silicon-based micro-ring 6 enters the on-chip detector 9 through the output grating 8 and is converted into an electrical signal. The electrical signal is processed by the demodulation circuit 10 and then demodulated to obtain an initial angular velocity signal.
[0054] In a feasible implementation manner, only light in the resonance frequency band can pass through the first silicon-based microring 4 .
[0055] In a feasible implementation, narrowband light enters the silicon-based sensing ring 5, and the frequency of light output by the silicon-based sensing ring 5 changes with the rotation of the silicon-based microring, including:
[0056] When light propagates in the optical waveguide of the silicon-based sensor ring 5, if the platform where the silicon-based sensor ring 5 is located does not rotate, the output light frequency remains unchanged; when the sensor ring rotates along the plane where the ring 5 is located, the light will show a relativistic effect during transmission in the ring, thereby generating a Sagnac phase shift. At this time, the narrowband light frequency shifts. The magnitude of the light frequency shift output by the silicon-based sensor ring 5 is judged. The greater the rotation speed, the greater the shift.
[0057] In a feasible implementation manner, judging whether the optical frequency output by the silicon-based sensor ring 5 is offset further includes:
[0058] The carrier rotation angular velocity is demodulated by detecting the shift in the narrowband light frequency.
[0059] In a feasible implementation manner, demodulating the rotational angular velocity of the carrier includes:
[0060] Based on silicon-based micro-rings, broadband light is converted into narrow-band light, and narrow-band light with extremely narrow frequency band is filtered out;
[0061] After the narrow-band light passes through the rotating silicon-based microring, it forms frequency-shifted narrow-band light, and then enters the silicon-based microring.
[0062] In a feasible implementation, modulation is applied to the electrodes on the silicon-based microring by means of the modulation circuit 7; the size of the silicon-based microring is fine-tuned to obtain an offset of the resonant channel, thereby biasing the center frequency of the narrowband light to the highest sensitivity on one side of the resonant channel, thereby completing the demodulation of the directionality of the carrier platform.
[0063] In a feasible implementation, in the present invention, when the carrier platform does not rotate, the light frequency in the silicon-based sensor ring 5 is constant, but when it rotates, the light in the silicon-based sensor ring 5 will produce a Sagnac frequency shift due to the relativistic effect, and the carrier rotation angular velocity can be demodulated by detecting the frequency shift. In order to demodulate the tiny frequency shift, the resonance of two identical silicon-based microrings is used to achieve this. The signal flow of the dual silicon-based microring demodulation angular velocity sensor system provided in the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, firstly, broadband light is converted into narrowband light based on the first silicon-based microring 4. Since only light with the same resonance frequency as the microring can pass through, narrowband light with extremely narrow frequency band can be screened out. After the narrowband light passes through the rotating first silicon-based microring 4, it forms frequency-shifted narrowband light, and then enters the second silicon-based microring 6. When the frequency is not shifted, the first silicon-based microring 4 and the second silicon-based microring 6 have the same resonance channel. At this time, the output light intensity is theoretically the largest, but after the frequency shift, the narrowband light will offset the resonance channel of the second silicon-based microring 6. At this time, the output light intensity will decrease. The demodulation of the angular velocity can be achieved by demodulating the intensity signal.
[0064] In a feasible implementation, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a silicon-based microring provided in an embodiment of the present invention for achieving signal demodulation by channel deviation under voltage modulation: a modulation circuit 7 applies an electric field to the silicon-based microring through an electrode, and changes the central resonance frequency of its resonance channel by changing the deformation of the silicon-based microring, so that it matches the central frequency of the narrowband light, thereby enabling the system to achieve demodulation of angular velocity.
[0065] In a feasible implementation, the carrier platform will cause a decrease in the light intensity signal when rotating in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. In order to realize the detection of the system in different directions, the modulation circuit 7 is used to modulate the electrodes on the second silicon-based microring 6, and the offset of the resonance channel is realized by fine-tuning the size of the silicon-based microring, thereby biasing the narrow-band light center frequency to the highest sensitivity on one side of the resonance channel. The modulation of the second silicon-based microring 6 can not only solve the demodulation of the directionality of the carrier platform, but also enable the system to achieve the highest sensitivity.
[0066] In the embodiment of the present invention, an angular velocity sensing system based on dual silicon-based micro-ring resonant demodulation is provided through the elaboration of the above technical features, that is, a monolithic integrated optical gyroscope based on dual silicon-based micro-ring resonant demodulation; the present invention finds through various studies on silicon-based monolithic integrated optical gyroscopes that a high-sensitivity detection of Sagnac frequency shift can be achieved based on a dual silicon-based micro-ring resonant demodulation method, thereby achieving angular velocity sensing, which provides a new solution for the realization of a high-sensitivity silicon-based monolithic integrated optical gyroscope compatible with CMOS technology. The implementation of the present invention will provide a theoretical basis and technical support for the development of integrated optical gyroscopes with the advantages of high sensitivity, miniaturization, chip-based and low cost, further expand their application in more fields, and generate huge social application value and economic benefits.
