Large bandwidth array waveguide grating design for FBG interrogation system
The array waveguide grating (AWG) demodulation method has been widely used in recent years. However, the resolution and total measurement range of AWG-based Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) interrogation systems are limited by the output characteristics of AWGs. We designed and fabricated a multi-channel SiO2-based AWG as a key component of FBG Interrogation. To increase the dynamic range of demodulation, a multimode interference coupler (MMI) structure is introduced in the middle of the input waveguide and the input slab waveguide. From the simulation results, the 3-dB bandwidth of the AWG is increased from 1.04 nm to 1.86 nm. We test the performance of the interrogation system based on this AWG. The results demonstrate that the system can achieve continuous demodulation in the C-band, with an interrogation accuracy better than 20.22 pm and a wavelength resolution of 1 pm.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.
Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.
Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
