The microstructure optical fiber 12 is positioned in an F-P cavity in the digital holographic recording optical path 11 based on the F-P cavity, light beams are reflected for multiple times in the F-P cavity and pass through the microstructure optical fiber for multiple times, and optical path differences are accumulated in sequence, so that the measurement sensitivity is higher.
In the microstructure fiber high-resolution three-dimensional refractive index testing method, the cavity length of the F-P cavity is larger than the diameter of the microstructure fiber 12, so that the microstructure fiber 12 can be placed in the F-P cavity. The microstructured optical fiber 12 is coated and filled with an index matching fluid.
In the microstructure fiber high-resolution three-dimensional refractive index test method, the interface reflectivity of the F-P cavity is 0-1.
In the microstructure fiber high-resolution three-dimensional refractive index test method, the F-P cavity has cavity lengths with different lengths and can have different shapes and sizes. The cavity length of the F-P cavity may be adjustable, i.e., an F-P etalon, when the cavity length of the F-P cavity is fixed.
The microstructure optical fiber 12 is an optical fiber having various microstructures, and is a common single mode optical fiber, a special optical fiber, or the like having any three-dimensional refractive index distribution. The micro-structured optical fiber 12 is a micro object, and when a light beam passes through the micro-structured optical fiber 12, a cylindrical lens effect is generated, so that a refractive index matching fluid having a refractive index equivalent to that of the outermost layer of the micro-structured optical fiber 12 needs to be selected and filled. The microstructured optical fiber 12 may be a conventional single mode fiber, a specialty fiber, etc. having different sizes and structural distributions.
The control module 13 is composed of a computer, an instrument control unit and an instrument control interface, and controls and operates the image collector, the rotation control platform and the like to complete the recording of the digital hologram containing the microstructure optical fiber information. After the digital holographic recording light path 11 based on the F-P cavity is built, the control module 13 is utilized to control the rotary control platform to drive the micro-structural optical fiber 12 to rotate for a circle, and the CCD is controlled to collect and store the digital hologram containing the information of the micro-structural optical fiber 12.

Figure BDA0002266507290000041
wherein, UTFor complex amplitude of transmitted light, A0Is the complex amplitude of the light wave 33 incident to the F-P cavity, R is the surface reflectivity inside the two parallel planar glass plates of the F-P cavity, as shown at 31 and 32 in fig. 3a, and δ is the phase distribution of the microstructured fiber.
Then when F-P cavity multiple beams interfere, the phase distribution obtained by digital holography is:
Figure BDA0002266507290000051
where n is the index of refraction of the medium within the cavity, d is the thickness of the F-P cavity, λ is the wavelength of the light source, and φ is the angle of incidence 34 of the light wave 33 incident on the F-P cavity.
The accumulation of the refractive index of the light beam passing through each point inside the microstructured optical fiber 12 along the propagation direction is the phase distribution obtained by the digital hologram, and when the refractive index difference between the inside of the microstructured optical fiber 12 and the ambient medium around the microstructured optical fiber 12 is small, the optical path difference is the accumulation of the refractive index along the beam path direction, and the relationship between the phase distribution and the refractive index distribution of the microstructured optical fiber 12 is:
Figure BDA0002266507290000052
where n (x, y, z) is the refractive index profile inside the microstructured fiber 12, the z-axis is the direction of beam propagation, n0Is the refractive index of the ambient medium surrounding the microstructured optical fiber 12.
For a common digital holographic recording light path based on Mach-Zehnder interference, a light source is divided into two beams by a beam splitter prism, one beam of light is used as object light wave through a microstructure optical fiber, and the other beam of light is used as reference light. The two beams of light are combined by the beam splitter prism and meet and interfere with each other on the CCD recording plane to form a hologram. The light beam only passes through the micro-structure optical fiber once, the three-dimensional information of the micro-structure optical fiber is recorded, and the optical path difference is accumulated once. The digital hologram recorded by CCD is reconstructed numerically and the complex amplitude distribution of the reconstructed object light wave is UMZ. Meanwhile, the phase distribution of the object light wave is obtained as follows:
Figure BDA0002266507290000053
wherein, UMZThe complex amplitude distribution of the reproduced object light wave is shown, Re represents the real part of the complex amplitude, and Im represents the imaginary part.
In the digital holographic recording optical path based on Mach-Zehnder interference, a light beam passes through the microstructure optical fiber along the propagation direction, phase difference is accumulated in the microstructure optical fiber along the propagation direction of the light beam, and the light beam only passes through the microstructure optical fiber once, so that the relationship between the phase distribution and the refractive index distribution of the microstructure optical fiber is as follows:
Figure BDA0002266507290000054
wherein n (x, y, z) is the refractive index distribution inside the microstructured fiber, the z-axis is the direction of beam propagation, n0Is the refractive index of the surrounding medium surrounding the microstructured optical fiber.
Comparing the formula (3) and the formula (5), it can be found that the microstructure optical fiber high resolution three-dimensional refractive index testing method based on the F-P cavity provided by the invention has the advantages that the light beam is reflected and transmitted for many times in the F-P cavity, passes through the microstructure optical fiber for many times, the three-dimensional information of the microstructure optical fiber is recorded, the optical path difference is accumulated in sequence, the measurement sensitivity is higher, the resolution is higher, and the method is superior to the common refractive index testing method based on Mach-Zehnder interference in principle.
Therefore, in the digital holographic recording optical path 11 based on the F-P cavity, the complex amplitude of incident light in the F-P cavity is firstly recorded, a digital hologram is recorded when the microstructure optical fiber is not put in, and the microstructure optical fiber is put in the F-P etalon.

The phase distribution containing information of the microstructured optical fiber 12 is subtracted from the phase distribution not containing information of the microstructured optical fiber 12 to obtain the phase distribution of which the angle only contains information of the microstructured optical fiber 12. And the control module 13 controls the rotary control platform to drive the micro-structural optical fiber 12 to rotate for a circle, and controls the CCD to collect the digital hologram containing the information of the micro-structural optical fiber 12. By using the calculation display module 14, the phase distribution of each angle, which only contains information of the microstructured optical fiber 12, can be sequentially obtained by using the formula (1), and the three-dimensional phase distribution δ (x, y, z) of the microstructured optical fiber can be reconstructed by sequentially performing iRadon transformation on the phase distribution of the microstructured optical fibers 12 of all angles on each cross section. According to the formula (3), the high-resolution three-dimensional refractive index distribution of the microstructured optical fiber 12 can be obtained through conversion, and the high-resolution three-dimensional refractive index distribution n (x, y, z) of the microstructured optical fiber 12 can be displayed on line through the calculation display module 14.
