Example 2 test principle
1. Principle of prism coupling method:
this experiment used a He-Ne laser (model JDW-3) with a wavelength of 632.8nm as the light source of the incident light, the emitted beam of which was incident on the prism surface at an angle theta, refracted and directed vertically within the prism
Figure BDA0003411750900000041
The angle of the corner is such that,
Figure BDA0003411750900000042
the angle is related to the phase velocity of the beam as shown in the equation:
Figure BDA0003411750900000051
in the above formula, npIs the refractive index of the prism and c is the speed of light in vacuum. The deflection platform is rotated, and the incident angle theta is changed at the moment
Figure BDA0003411750900000052
The angle is also changed, and when the phase velocity of the light is equal to the phase velocity of a mode in the waveguide, the light is coupled into the waveguide at the phase velocity
Figure BDA0003411750900000053
The effective refractive index of the m-order mode is then:
Figure BDA0003411750900000054

Similarly, the surface of the prism is respectively cleaned by absolute ethyl alcohol and deionized water and dried.
(2) The prism is pressed on the glass sheet and is placed on a device for fixing the prism on the turntable, and the upper knob and the lower knob are adjusted until the bottom surface of the prism has a central indentation.
(3) The He-Ne laser (model JDW-3) with a wavelength of 632.8nm was turned on to impinge incident light on the central indentation, and the turntable was rotated to reflect the reflected light back into the laser source, and the turntable angle at that time was recorded. This angle is called the reference angle, also called the null angle.
