Analysis Of Optical Gyroscopes With Vertically Stacked Ring Resonators, Dooyoung Hah Jan 2021

Analysis Of Optical Gyroscopes With Vertically Stacked Ring Resonators, Dooyoung Hah

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Without any moving part, optical gyroscopes exhibit superior reliability and accuracy in comparison to mechanical sensors. Microring-resonator-based optical gyroscopes emerged as alternatives for bulky conventional Sagnac interferometer sensors, especially attractive for applications with limited footprints. Previously, it has been reported that planar incorporation of multiple resonators does not bring about improvement in sensitivity for a given area because the increase in Sagnac phase accumulation does not outrun the increase of area. Therefore, it was naturally suggested to consider vertical stacking of ring resonators because then, the resonators can share the same footprint. In this work, sensitivity performances of such configurations …
