Temperature sensing using the spectral interference of polarization modes in a highly birefringent fiber

The spectral interference of polarization modes in a highly birefringent (HB) fiber to measure temperature is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. A tandem configuration of a birefringent delay line and a sensing HB fiber is considered and the spectral interferograms are modelled for the known birefringence dispersion of the HB fiber under test. As the delay line, a birefringent quartz crystal of a suitable thickness is employed to resolve a channeled spectrum. The channeled spectra are recorded for different temperatures and the polarimetric sensitivity to temperature, determined in the spectral range from 500 to 850 nm, is decreasing with wavelength. It is demonstrated that the temperature sensing is possible using the wavelength interrogation, i.e., the position of a given interference maximum is temperature dependent. The temperature sensitivity of the HB fiber under test is −0.25 nm/K and the resolution is better than 0.5 K.

利用淀积在玻璃衬底上的金银合金薄膜作为表面等离子体共振(SPR)芯片, 构建了Kretschmann结构的近红外波长检测型SPR传感器. 采用不同浓度的葡萄糖水溶液测试了金银合金薄膜SPR传感器的折射率灵敏度. 实验结果表明随着入射角从7.5°增大到 9.5°, SPR吸收峰的半高峰宽从292.8 nm 减小到 131.4 nm, 共振波长从 1215 nm蓝移到 767.7 nm, 折射率灵敏度从35648.3 nm/RIU 减小到 9363.6 nm/RIU.在相同的初始共振波长(λ_R)下获得的金银合金薄膜SPR折射率灵敏度高于纯金膜(纯金膜在λ_R=1215 nm下的折射率灵敏度为29793.9 nm/RIU). 利用1 μmol/L的牛血清蛋白(BSA)水溶液测试了传感器对蛋白质吸附的响应.结果表明, BSA分子吸附使得金银合金薄膜SPR吸收峰红移了12.1 nm而纯金膜SPR吸收峰仅红移了9.5 nm. 实验结果还表明, 在相同λ_R下, 金银合金薄膜SPR吸收峰的半高峰宽大于纯金膜的半高峰宽, 因此其光谱分辨率比纯金膜SPR传感器低. 关键词： 金银合金薄膜 表面等离子体共振 波长检测型 高灵敏度

Remote fiber sensor based on cascaded Fourier domain mode-locked laser

We propose a high-speed remote fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogation system based on a 1.3-μm cascaded Fourier-domain mode-locked (FDML) laser. It consists of multiple FBGs connected to an optical circulator in the laser cavity. The cascaded FDML laser with these multiple FBGs is operational when the scanning frequency of the fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter matches the fundamental frequency of the laser cavity. Each FBG provides a separate laser cavity for the FDML laser. The scanning frequencies of each laser cavity are 30.5314, 31.5393, 32.7108, and 33.8023 kHz. Using the cascaded FDML laser, we measure the performance of the long-distance static strain FBG sensor interrogation system in both the time and spectral domains. The slope coefficients of the measured relative wavelength difference and the relative time delay from the static strain are found to be 0.95 pm/μstrain and 0.15 ns/μstrain, respectively. We also demonstrate the dynamic response of the interrogation system with 80-Hz modulation strain using the cascaded FDML laser. Thus, an FBG sensor interrogation system for high-speed and high-sensitivity long-distance monitoring systems can be realized using a cascaded FDML laser.

Microwave interrogation cavity for the rubidium space cold atom clock

The performance of space cold atom clocks(SCACs) should be improved thanks to the microgravity environment in space.The microwave interrogation cavity is a key element in a SCAC.In this paper,we develop a microwave interrogation cavity especially for the rubidium SCAC.The interrogation cavity has two microwave interaction zones with a single feedin source,which is located at the center of the cavity for symmetric coupling excitation and to ensure that the two interaction zones are in phase.The interrogation cavity has a measured resonance frequency of 6.835056471 GHz with a loaded quality factor of nearly 4200,which shows good agreement with simulation results.We measure the Rabi frequency of the clock transition of the rubidium atom in each microwave interaction zone,and subsequently demonstrate that the distributions of the magnetic field in the two interaction zones are the same and meet all requirements of the rubidium SCAC.
