The invention provides a thin-film
lithium niobate integrated optical engine for a
fiber-optic
gyroscope. The thin-film
lithium niobate integrated optical engine comprises a substrate, a lower cladding, a
lithium niobate thin-film
waveguide core layer and an upper cladding, the
lithium niobate film
waveguide core layer comprises an incident unit, a polarizing unit, a
coupling unit, a
beam splitting unit, a spot size conversion unit, a
phase modulation unit and an emergent unit; the input unit and the polarization unit are gas-phase
proton exchange waveguides and naturally have a polarization function; the
coupling unit and the
beam splitting unit are integrated into a whole, the structure is 2 * 2MMI, and a gas-phase
proton exchange process is adopted for preparation; the
phase modulation region adopts a
lithium niobate film
ridge waveguide structure, and coplanar traveling wave electrodes are arranged to realize an electro-optical
modulation function; and spot-size conversion structures are additionally arranged between the gas-phase
proton exchange waveguide and the
ridge waveguide as well as between the
ridge waveguide and the output
optical fiber, so that mode field matching is realized. According to the embodiment of the invention, the
lithium niobate film platform is utilized, and gas-phase proton exchange is combined with a ridge waveguide
etching process, so that multiple functions of polarization,
coupling,
beam splitting, modulation and the like are integrated, the problem of
optical coupling loss is solved, and the purposes of
miniaturization and low cost of future
fiber-optic gyroscopes are achieved.
