And the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 includes two reflecting members 400, which are a first reflecting member 410 and a second reflecting member 420, respectively, the first reflecting member 410 is parallel to the first reflecting surface 321, the second reflecting member 420 is parallel to the second reflecting surface 322, the first reflecting member 410 and the first reflecting surface 321 form a first F-P cavity 610, the second reflecting member 420 and the second reflecting surface 322 form a second F-P cavity 620, the light beam emitted from the light source 100 is divided into a first sub-light beam perpendicular to the first reflecting surface 321 and a second sub-light beam perpendicular to the second reflecting surface 322 at the splitting surface 310 via the optical fiber 200, the first sub-light beam is reflected and transmitted at the first reflecting surface 321 to generate a first sub-reflected light beam and a first sub-transmitted light beam, the first sub-transmitted light beam is reflected at the first reflecting member 410 via the first F-P cavity 610 to be reflected to the first reflecting surface 321, and interferes with the first sub-reflected beam at the first reflecting surface 321 to generate a first sub-interference beam; the second sub-beam is also reflected and transmitted at the second reflective surface 322 to generate a second sub-reflected beam and a second sub-transmitted beam, which is reflected at the second reflective element 420 through the second F-P cavity 620, reflected to the second reflective surface 322, and interfered with the second sub-reflected beam at the second reflective surface 322 to generate a second sub-interference beam. The first sub-interference light beam and the second sub-interference light beam are transmitted to the demodulator 500 through the splitting surface 310 and the optical fiber 200, and the demodulator 500 demodulates the first sub-interference light beam and the second sub-interference light beam respectively, so as to realize two-dimensional measurement.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensor 10 is a single-fiber three-dimensional sensor, and is configured as shown in fig. 3, the beam splitter 300 includes a first sub-splitting surface 311 and a second sub-splitting surface 312, the beam is split into a first sub-beam and a second sub-beam in two directions at the first sub-splitting surface 311, the directions of the first sub-beam and the second sub-beam are the X direction and the Y direction in fig. 3, respectively, the second sub-beam in the Y direction is split into a third sub-beam and a fourth sub-beam in two directions at the second sub-splitting surface 312, the directions of the third sub-beam and the fourth sub-beam are the Y direction in fig. 3 and the Z direction perpendicular to the paper, respectively, and other configurations thereof are adjusted on the basis of the two-dimensional sensor, so as to realize single-fiber three-dimensional measurement.
It should be noted that: in order to further simplify the structure of the beam splitter prism, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the beam splitter prism 300 includes a beam splitting surface 310, and the beam is split into three sub-beams with different directions at the beam splitting surface 310, so as to realize three-dimensional measurement of a single optical fiber. Wherein the three sub-beams in different directions are respectively in the X-direction, the Y-direction and the Z-direction perpendicular to the paper plane shown in fig. 4.
The splitting plane 310 in fig. 4 is only a schematic diagram for easy understanding, and in practical applications, the splitting plane 310 may be implemented to split the light beam into three sub-light beams in different directions.
It should be understood that: the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 realizes four-dimensional or even higher-dimensional measurement, and by setting the splitting surface 310 or structure of the beam splitter prism 300, the light beam is split into sub-beams in multiple directions by the beam splitter prism 300, and the number and the setting position of the reflecting elements 400 are adjusted adaptively, which is not described herein.
In order to improve the reliability of the measurement of the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 further includes at least two transflective films 700 corresponding to the at least two reflective surfaces 320, and the at least two transflective films 700 are respectively coated on the at least two reflective surfaces 320 corresponding to the at least two transflective films 700.
Taking the single-fiber two-dimensional sensor device as an example, the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensor device 10 includes a first transflective film 710 and a second transflective film 720, wherein the first transflective film 710 is plated on the first reflective surface 321, and the second transflective film 720 is plated on the second reflective surface 322.
By plating the first transflective film 710 on the first reflecting surface 321, the light quantities of the first sub-reflected light beam and the first sub-transmitted light beam can be the same, and the failure of the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 in measuring parameters due to the incapability of effectively traveling the first sub-interference light beam when the difference between the light quantities of the first sub-reflected light beam and the first sub-transmitted light beam is large is avoided. Similarly, the reliability of the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 can be improved by plating the second transflective film 720 on the second reflecting surface 322.

By plating the second antireflection film 331 on the incident surface 330, the emission of the light beam at the incident surface 330 can be further reduced, the transmission of the light beam at the incident surface 330 can be improved, so that the loss of the light beam can be reduced, the influence of the reflected light at the incident surface 330 on the first sub-interference light beam and the second sub-interference light beam can be avoided, and the measurement reliability of the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 can be improved.
To further improve the measurement reliability of the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10, in some embodiments of the present invention, the light quantities of each of the at least two sub-beams are equal. Namely: the splitting plane 310 equally divides the light beam into at least two sub-beams.
By setting the light quantity of each of the at least two sub-beams to be equal, it is avoided that when the light quantity of one of the sub-beams is too small, the one of the sub-beams is submerged by noise, so that the one of the sub-beams cannot be detected, and thus the measurement of the one of the sub-beams by the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 is disabled.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the single fiber multi-fiber sensor device 10 further includes a fiber circulator 800, the optical fiber 200 includes a first sub-fiber 210, a second sub-fiber 220 and a third sub-fiber 230, two ends of the first sub-fiber 210 are respectively connected to the light source 100 and the fiber circulator 800, one end of the second sub-fiber 220 is connected to the fiber circulator 800, the other end of the second sub-fiber 220 is a fiber end face 201, and two ends of the third sub-fiber 230 are respectively connected to the fiber circulator 800 and the demodulator 500.
By providing the fiber optic circulator 800, bidirectional beam transmission over a single fiber 200 can be achieved, further simplifying the structure and volume of the single fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10.
In order to further reduce the loss of the light beam, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the single-fiber multi-dimensional F-P sensing device 10 further includes a collimator 900, the collimator 900 is disposed between the fiber end surface 201 and the beam splitter prism 300, and the axis of the collimator 900 is parallel to the second sub-fiber 220.
