Description

A kind of ultra-sensitivity magnetic field sensor based on optical microcavity
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of ultra-sensitivity magnetic field sensor based on optical microcavity has high sensitivity.
Background technique
Optical microcavity is a kind of important photonic device, has the advantages that high quality factor and small mode volume, in base Plinth and application field receive significant attention, such as Eurytrema coelomatium, nonlinear optics, extremely low threshold value micro-cavity laser, height Sensor etc..Optical micro-cavity sensors with Echo Wall mode of resonance are small in size, high sensitivity, detection limit are low, And markless detection can be realized to biochemical molecule, detection confidence is high, has very much practical value.
Magnetic fluid is that the ferromagnetism particle for superscribing surfactant is dispersed in one formed in Suitable carrier liquids Kind stable colloidal solutions.As a kind of new functional material, magnetic fluid has many unique magneto-optical properties, such as tunable refractive index Characteristic, thermal lensing effect, Faraday effect, birefringence effect, magnetostrictive effect etc..These properties of magnetic fluid are opened Hair is applied in many optical devices, such as optical filtering, adjustable optical switch, magneto-optic modulator etc..Among many properties, Tunable refractive index characteristic is most widely used, more next using the optical device of this characteristic production and the sensing solutions of realization It is more.
If the highly sensitive characteristic of echo wall mode optical micro-cavity mutually tied with the tunable refractive index characteristic of magnetic fluid It closes, then highly sensitive magnetic field sensing can be realized.Its basic principle is as follows: optical microcavity is placed under magnetic field to be measured, outside Under the action of adding magnetic field, the refractive index of magnetic fluid changes, that is, realizes the tuning as filter of whole device, finally Cause the resonance wavelength of output optical signal to change, the letter in magnetic field to be measured can be detected by demodulating to output signal Breath.
Summary of the invention
The present invention problem not high for current magnetic field sensor sensitivity, proposes a kind of having based on optical microcavity The magnetic field sensor of high sensitivity.
The technical solution adopted by the invention is as follows:
The present invention includes fixing the micro-nano fiber, micro-pipe and the magnetic fluid that are packaged together and the optical microcavity formed, optics Magnetic field signal is converted optical signal by microcavity, and micro-nano fiber is wrapped in the outer wall of micro-pipe, and draws both ends respectively as input terminal And output end, the inner hollow of micro-pipe are packaged with magnetic fluid, the input terminal and output end of micro-nano fiber are separately connected wide spectrum light source And spectroanalysis instrument, micro-nano fiber are wrapped in micro-pipe outer wall and form overlay region, the micro-nano fiber that overlay region is located above is defeated Enter section, the underlying micro-nano fiber in overlay region is deferent segment, and input section and deferent segment form overlay region;Electromagnetic wave is by wide spectrum optical Source issues, and is transmitted to overlay region by micro-nano fiber, electromagnetic wave a part in input section couples directly to deferent segment, another portion Divide and continue to propagate along micro-nano fiber, reaches deferent segment, superimposed electromagnetic wave final output to light again after resonant cavity interior resonance Spectrum analysis instrument.
One circle of the micro-nano fiber is wrapped in the outer wall of micro-pipe, and there are juxtapositions for the input terminal and output end of a circle The part of micro-pipe outer wall is wound, and is close to arrange up and down as overlay region, the input terminal of overlay region and the micro-nano fiber of output end.
The micro-pipe is tube structure, and magnetic fluid is filled in cylinder, not any between micro-pipe tube wall and magnetic fluid Bubble or gap.
Micro-nano fiber, micro-pipe and the magnetic fluid outside is wrapped up by solidification glue and being solidified, and solidification glue refractive index compares institute The refractive index for stating micro-nano fiber fibre core is small.By in the encapsulation technology of overlay region and the fully enclosed fixation of micro-pipe, curing method is not only It is limited to UV curing method.
The micro-nano fiber cross section is circle, and diameter is in micron dimension;The cross section of micro-pipe is annular, pipe thickness In micron dimension.
The overlapping section length is obtained according to the parameter optimization of optical source wavelength, micro-pipe tube wall and magnetic fluid.
Further, the principle of optical microcavity are as follows:
(1) optical microcavity of the Whispering-gallery-mode is a filter, and the electromagnetic wave that wavelength is met certain condition more holds Easily with this configuration and continue to travel in spectroanalysis instrument, forms corresponding frequency spectrum;
(2) refractive index of the magnetic fluid filled in optical microcavity is related with extraneous magnetic field size, since electromagnetic wave is by coupling It closes in optical microcavity, can be occurred with the change of magnetic fluid refractive index by the frequency spectrum of the electromagnetic wave of microcavity one-to-one Certain offset occurs relative to original frequency spectrum (magnetic field is not added) for variation, and then, Magnetic Field has just been integrated into electromagnetism In the frequency spectrum of wave, by observing frequency spectrum, the size in added magnetic field just can be extrapolated.
After a week tightly around micro-pipe, the length of the overlay region of micro-nano fiber is set as some particular value to micro-nano fiber, thus Keep the couple state of electromagnetic wave best.Since this is the device of very small (micron dimension) precision, any spot or ash Dirt can all damage its function, therefore, which is totally immersed in also uncured liquid curing glue, is then shone with ultraviolet light Penetrating makes to solidify adhesive curing, to prevent it contaminated or corrode, while also its relative position can be made to be kept fixed.
Therefore, the refractive index of magnetic fluid and solidification glue must be smaller than the refractive index of the fibre core of micro-nano fiber, to make electromagnetic wave It is limited in micro-nano fiber and propagates without becoming separated in flight.
The invention has the benefit that
The present invention combines the filtering property of optical microcavity with the tunable refractive index characteristic of magnetic fluid, takes full advantage of light The advantage of the high quality factor of microcavity and the highfield sensibility of magnetic fluid is learned, and is used micro-nano fiber around optical microcavity One week and the overlapping specific special construction of section length, so as to produce the magnetic field sensor with high sensitivity.
