The resonant micro-optic gyroscope (RMOG) is one of the most promising candidates for chip-scale optoelectronic gyroscopes. A broadband source-driven RMOG based on a multi-turn waveguide-type ring resonator (WRR) has been proposed and demonstrated. The theoretical sensitivity is enhanced with the multi-turn structure, while the parasitic backscattering can be resolved by the use of the broadband source, thus greatly improving the long-term bias stability of the RMOG. We also reduce the relative intensity noise (RIN)-induced error of the broadband source at the gyro output by optimizing the number of loop turns of the WRR, and improve the angle random walk (ARW) by 4.8 dB compared with the case of a single-turn WRR. Finally, a bias stability of 1°/h is obtained with a 5-turn WRR of 4.05 cm diameter, achieving the tactical-grade resolution. To the best of our knowledge this is the best result reported to date for an RMOG of similar size.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFA resonant fiber-optic gyroscope (RFOG) based on a broadband source can avoid the fundamental drawback of coherence detection processing while possessing the greater sensitivity afforded by the finesse of the fiber-optic ring resonator. In this paper, the basic operation principle is presented and demonstrated in detail, and various noise sources, as well as the temperature effect encountered in this broadband source-driven RFOG, are studied and analyzed. Then a combined modulation technique is proposed to suppress the residual backscattering noise.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA broadband source-driven resonant fiber-optic gyroscope (RFOG) can reduce coherence-related noise, thus achieving a better sensitivity with a much simpler configuration than the traditional system with a coherent source. Its detection sensitivity, however, is still limited by the excess relative intensity noise (RIN) of the broadband source. In this paper, the RIN error mechanism in this broadband source-driven RFOG is revealed and countermeasures are presented.

Narrowband terahertz (THz) radiation is crucial for high-resolution spectral identification, but a narrowband THz source driven by a femtosecond (fs) laser has remained scarce. Here, it is computationally predicted that a metal/dielectric/magnetoelastic heterostructure enables converting a fs laser pulse into a multicycle THz pulse with a narrow linewidth down to ∼1.5 GHz, which is in contrast to the single-cycle, broadband THz pulse from the existing fs-laser-excited emitters.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe demonstrate a versatile technique to generate a broadband optical frequency comb source in the C-band. This is accomplished by nonlinear spectral broadening of a phase modulated comb source driven by dual frequency offset locked carriers. The locking is achieved by setting up a heterodyne optical frequency locked loop to lock two phase modulated electro-optic 25 GHz frequency combs sourced from individual seed carriers offset by 100 GHz, to within 6.
