Wherein δ f is the difference between the frequency that rotates in the clockwise direction respectively of laser and the frequency rotated in the counterclockwise direction.Can learn from formula (2), angular velocity measurement sensitivity be improved, the ring cavity comprising large regions as far as possible, optical maser wavelength short as far as possible should be used, and laser linewidth narrow as far as possible.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of laser gyro.In FIG, the laser beam that laser instrument 101 exports is by entering polarization splitting prism (Polarizing BeamSplitter after isolator 102, half-wave plate 103, be called for short: PBS) laser beam is divided into folded light beam and transmitted light beam by 104, PBS 104.Wherein folded light beam is divided into reflecting part and transmissive portion by Amici prism 105, reflecting part enters Amici prism 120 and measures for beat frequency, transmissive portion enters electrooptic modulator 106, the local oscillation signal that electrooptic modulator 106 utilizes signal source 107 to provide is modulated transmissive portion, and the laser signal after modulation is totally reflected by completely reflecting mirror M1, and also rotated in the counterclockwise direction by completely reflecting mirror M5 freedom of entry space ring cavity 122, the transmitted light of the laser signal rotated in the counterclockwise direction goes out to inject photodetector 108 from M5, laser signal is converted to electric signal by photodetector 108, control the piezoelectric ceramics 111 on free space ring cavity 122 through servo-drive system 110 after the electric signal that photodetector 108 is changed by frequency mixer 109 and the local oscillation signal mixing that signal source 107 produces.Simultaneously the transmitted light beam that provides of PBS 104 is after acousto-optic modulator 112,113, is totally reflected respectively via completely reflecting mirror M2 and M3.The laser beam that completely reflecting mirror M2 is totally reflected by Amici prism 120 and the reflecting part provided by Amici prism 105 are supplied to photoelectric detector 121 to carry out beat frequency measurement after carrying out conjunction bundle, and the local oscillation signal that electrooptic modulator 114 utilizes signal source 115 to produce is modulated the laser signal that completely reflecting mirror M3 is totally reflected.Laser signal after modulation is totally reflected by completely reflecting mirror M4 by electrooptic modulator 114, and be rotated in a clockwise direction by completely reflecting mirror M6 freedom of entry space ring cavity 122, the transmitted light of the laser signal be rotated in a clockwise direction enters photodetector 116 from M6, laser signal is converted to electric signal by photodetector 116, control the output frequency of voltage controlled oscillator 119 through servo-drive system 118 after the electric signal that photodetector 116 provides by frequency mixer 117 and the local oscillation signal mixing that signal source 115 produces, and the output frequency of voltage controlled oscillator 119 is supplied to acousto-optic modulator 112.Be rotated in a clockwise direction respectively in ring cavity and difference on the frequency when rotating in the counterclockwise direction by measuring laser beam, the angular velocity of rotation of laser gyro can be determined.
In this schematic diagram, what gyroscope cavity adopted is free space ring cavity, and those skilled in the art are scrutable, and gyroscope cavity also can adopt optic fiber ring-shaped cavity.
Current laser gyro mainly adopts triangle resonator cavity and mechanical shaking Frequency-Biasing Technique, namely in the cavity be made up of metallic-membrane plating reflector, adopts the direct control chamber length of piezoelectric element to carry out frequency stabilization.Find out from formula (1), the input-output characteristic curve of desirable laser gyro should be strict logical zeroaxial straight line.But laser gyro essence is introduced gain source and formed in annular Sagnac interferometer, the introducing in gain source also brings many error sources simultaneously.Main error has zero partially (in fact zero partially itself with certain randomness, i.e. drift), locking and errors of proportional factor, wherein limit the most serious error of laser gyro practical application, no more than the lock district error caused by latch up effect, namely when input angular velocity low to a certain extent time, positive and negative two bundle laser frequencies are identical, export, only have when input rate is greater than lock-in threshold Ω without beat signal ltime just have beat frequency to export.
The essence of latch up effect is because positive and negative two bundle row ripples are coupled mutually, produces the result of Frequency Synchronization.Cause a lot of because have of coupling, as the non-linear absorption etc. of gain media in the scattering of the incomplete reflection of laser mirror, mirror surface, resonator cavity.Wherein topmost factor is the backscattering of catoptron.In the ring resonator of laser gyro, realize light beam with catoptron to detour in the loop, because catoptron can not be accomplished to reflect completely, when light beam reflects along light path by catoptron, total existence is to all directions scattering, and participate in reciprocal light beam along the scattered light (back-scattering light) that input path returns, thus create coupling, obtain energy to interpenetrate, when the frequency difference of positive and negative two bundle row ripples little to a certain extent time, this two bundles row wave frequency will be synchronous, thus cause laser gyro no signal to export.
Since laser gyro occurs, latch up effect annoyings the application and development of laser gyro always.The method that current laser gyro overcomes latch up effect mainly adopts the method for active resonant cavity, Frequency-Biasing Technique is used to reduce lock district to the impact of laser gyro, develop multiple Frequency-Biasing Technique at present, as methods such as Dithered, rate biased, magnetic mirror bias, Zeeman offset frequency, mirror jitter offset frequency, four-frequency differentials.These methods are inherently in laser gyro ring cavity, add a disturbance, make laser frequency Rapid Variable Design within the scope of, the lock district threshold value of laser gyro is constantly changed, avoid laser gyro generation locking, but this method does not inherently eliminate latch-up phenomenon.The working mechanism simultaneously adding frequency disturbance is varied, brings the error of measuring accuracy.And the introducing of Frequency-Biasing Technique causes laser gyro to take measurement of an angle certain restriction, to a certain extent little when taking measurement of an angle, the error that offset frequency is brought can be greater than the beat frequency result that takes measurement of an angle, and cause the measurement result of laser gyro unreliable, this also directly limit the precision of laser gyro.
