半导体激光器光反馈效应对原子传感系统小型化的影响

Influence of semiconductor laser optical feedback effect on miniature atomic sensing system

  • 摘要: 为了评估光反馈效应对小型化原子传感系统的精度与稳定性的影响,利用小型化原子陀螺仪使用的半导体激光光源与光学元件搭建了光反馈效应测试光路,测试了光反馈引起的自混合干涉信号光功率波动;通过移动压电位移台,分别测试了偏振片、λ/4波片、原子气室、非球面透镜引起的光功率波动,并分析了处于光反馈条件下环境对光功率波动的潜在影响。结果表明,偏振片、λ/4波片、原子气室、非球面透镜最大可分别引起光功率4.8%,3.46%,6.62%,1.75%的功率波动;倾斜光学元件可以显著抑制光反馈效应,针对不便倾斜的光学元件,在不改变元件接收光功率的条件下,使用倾斜衰减片可以明显抑制光反馈效应。该研究可以为使用795 nm分布布喇格反射半导体激光器的原子传感系统小型化工作提供参考。

     

    Abstract: Optical power fluctuation will reduce the accuracy and stability of the atomic sensing system. In order to evaluate the influence of optical feedback on the accuracy and stability of miniature atomic sensing system, the optical power fluctuation of self-mixing interference signal caused by optical feedback with the semiconductor laser source and optical element used in miniature atomic gyroscope system was tested. The optical power fluctuations caused by polarizer, λ/4 wave-plate, atomic cell and aspherical lens were measured by moving piezo inertia stage, and the potential influence of the environment on the optical power fluctuations was analyzed. It is found that the maximum power fluctuation caused by polarizer, λ/4 wave-plate, atomic cell, and aspherical lens are 4.8%, 3.46%, 6.62% and 1.75%, respectively. The optical feedback effect can be significantly suppressed by tilting optical elements. A tilting attenuator is used to suppress the optical feedback effect for the optical elements which are inconvenient to tilt without changing the optical power received by the elements. This work can provide a reference for the miniaturization of atom sensing systems using 795 nm distributed Bragg reflection semiconductor lasers.
