Abstract

The invention provides an ultrasensitive magnetic field sensor based on an optical microcavity. The optical microcavity is composed of a micro nano optical fiber, a microtubule and magnetic fluid. The micro nano optical fiber winds the outer wall of the microtubule by one cycle. The inner part of the microtubule is hollow and the magnetic fluid is packaged therein. The input end and the output end of the micro nano optical fiber are respectively connected with a broadband light source and a spectrum analyzer. The micro nano optical fiber winds the outer wall of themicrotubule by one cycle and is crossly overlapped, thereby forming an overlapping area. An electromagnetic wave is transmitted from the broadband light source and is transmitted to the optical microcavity through the micro nano optical fiber.

Optical microcavity is a kind of important photonic device, there is high quality factor and the advantage of small mode volume, receive significant attention on basis and application, for instance Eurytrema coelomatium, nonlinear optics, extremely low threshold value micro-cavity laser, high sensor etc..The optical micro-cavity sensors volume with Echo Wall mode of resonance is little, highly sensitive, detection limit is low, and biochemical molecule can realize markless detection, and detection confidence is high, has very much practical value.
Magnetic fluid is a kind of stable colloidal solutions formed in Suitable carrier liquids by the ferromagnetism even particulate dispersion superscribing surfactant.As a kind of new functional material, magnetic fluid has a lot of unique magneto-optical property, such as tunable refractive index characteristic, thermal lensing effect, Faraday effect, birefringence effect, magnetostrictive effect etc..These character of magnetic fluid have been developed and have been applied in a lot of optics, such as filter lens, adjustable optical switch, magneto-optic modulator etc..Among many character, being most widely used of tunable refractive index characteristic, utilize the sensing solutions of optics that this characteristic makes and realization to get more and more.
If the tunable refractive index characteristic of the high sensitivity characteristic of echo wall mode optical micro-cavity and magnetic fluid is combined, then highly sensitive magnetic field sensing can be realized.Its ultimate principle is as follows: optical microcavity is placed under magnetic field to be measured, under the effect of externally-applied magnetic field, the refractive index of magnetic fluid changes, namely the tuning as wave filter of whole device is achieved, the resonance wavelength ultimately resulting in output optical signal changes, by being demodulated just can detecting the information in magnetic field to be measured to output signal.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is directed to the problem that current magnetic field sensor sensitivity is not high, it is proposed that a kind of optically-based microcavity there is extremely highly sensitive magnetic field sensor.
The technical solution used in the present invention is as follows:
The present invention includes the fixing micro-nano fiber being packaged together, micro-pipe and magnetic fluid and the optical microcavity that formed, field signal is converted into optical signal by optical microcavity, micro-nano fiber is wrapped in the outer wall of micro-pipe, and draw two ends respectively as input and outfan, the inner hollow of micro-pipe is packaged with magnetic fluid, the input of micro-nano fiber and outfan connect wide spectrum light source and spectroanalysis instrument respectively, micro-nano fiber is wrapped in micro-pipe outer wall and forms overlay region, overlay region micro-nano fiber above is input section, the micro-nano fiber that overlay region is positioned below is deferent segment, input section and deferent segment form overlay region;Electromagnetic wave is sent by wide spectrum light source, transmitting to overlay region through micro-nano fiber, the electromagnetic wave part in input section couples directly to deferent segment, and another part continues to propagate along micro-nano fiber, arriving deferent segment after resonator cavity interior resonance again, the electromagnetic wave after superposition finally exports to spectroanalysis instrument.
One circle of described micro-nano fiber is wrapped in the outer wall of micro-pipe, and the input of a circle and outfan exist juxtaposition and be wound around the part of micro-pipe outer wall, and are close to layout up and down as overlay region, the input of overlay region and the micro-nano fiber of outfan.
Described micro-pipe is tube structure, and magnetic fluid is filled in cylinder, does not have any bubble or gap between micro-tube wall and magnetic fluid.
By solidifying glue parcel solidification outside described micro-nano fiber, micro-pipe and magnetic fluid, and it is little to solidify the refractive index of micro-nano fiber fibre core described in glue refractive index ratio.By overlay region with the fully enclosed fixing encapsulation technology of micro-pipe, curing is not limited only to UV curing method.
Described micro-nano fiber cross section is circular, and diameter is in micron dimension;The cross section of micro-pipe is annular, and pipe thickness is in micron dimension.
Described overlay region length obtains according to the parameter optimization of optical source wavelength, micro-tube wall and magnetic fluid.
Further, the principle of optical microcavity is:
(1) optical microcavity of described Whispering-gallery-mode is a wave filter, and wavelength meets the electromagnetic wave of certain condition more easily by this structure and to be continued to propagate in spectroanalysis instrument, forms corresponding frequency spectrum;
(2) in the middle of optical microcavity, the refractive index of the magnetic fluid of dress is relevant with extraneous magnetic field size, owing to electromagnetic wave is coupled in optical microcavity, man-to-man change can be there is along with the change of magnetic fluid refractive index by the electromagnetic frequency spectrum of microcavity, namely there is certain skew relative to original frequency spectrum (being not added with magnetic field), then, Magnetic Field has just been integrated in the middle of electromagnetic frequency spectrum, by observing frequency spectrum, just can extrapolate the size in added magnetic field.
Micro-nano fiber is tightly around after micro-Guan Yizhou, and the length of the overlay region of micro-nano fiber is set as certain particular value, so that electromagnetic couple state is best.Owing to this is the device of one very small (micron dimension) precision, any spot or dust all can damage its function, therefore, this structure is totally immersed in also uncured liquid curing glue, then solidification adhesive curing is made with ultraviolet radiation, to prevent it contaminated or to corrode, its relative position also can be made to keep fixing simultaneously.
Therefore, the refractive index of magnetic fluid and solidification glue must be less than the refractive index of the fibre core of micro-nano fiber, propagates so that electromagnetic wave is limited in micro-nano fiber and does not become separated in flight.
The invention have the benefit that
The filtering property of optical microcavity is combined by the present invention with the tunable refractive index characteristic of magnetic fluid, take full advantage of the high quality factor of optical microcavity and the advantage of the highfield sensitivity of magnetic fluid, and have employed micro-nano fiber around optical microcavity one week and the specific special construction of overlay region length such that it is able to produce and there is extremely highly sensitive magnetic field sensor.
