The application discloses an IMU light path
structure based on multiple super surfaces, and the
light beam generated by a
laser 1 is divided into three mutually perpendicular light beams after the action of a
beam splitting super surface 3, and then is converted into circularly polarized light and
linearly polarized light by a polarization conversion
beam splitting super surface 4, and is used for pumping and detection of a
nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscope 5 respectively. The
beam splitting super surface 3 is composed of polarization-insensitive cylindrical nanorods, and the incident light is split and corresponding deflection is generated by combining the generalized Snell law. The polarization conversion beam splitting super surface 4 is composed of polarization-sensitive rectangular nanorods and polarization-insensitive cylindrical nanorods, the rectangular nanorods are used for converting
linearly polarized light into circularly polarized light, and the cylindrical nanorods maintain the
linear polarization characteristics and realize
light beam splitting and direction adjustment. The application adopts a single
laser configuration, realizes efficient
light field regulation and control based on super surfaces, avoids the problem that a traditional IMU light
path system depends on multiple lasers, reduces the
system volume, complexity and
energy consumption, improves the stability and integration, and is suitable for high-precision inertial navigation applications.
