Influence of the eigenmode polarization deviation on the output Sagnac frequency difference in nonplanar ring
Abstract:
We present a theoretical model to quantitatively analyze the influence of the eigenmode polarization deviation (described with ellipticity parameter) on the output Sagnac frequency difference in two nonplanar ring resonators with different mirror arrangements. The theoretical and numerical analysis results prove that the deviation of the eigenmode polarization from the ideally circular polarized state will produce a drop of the output Sagnac frequency difference. Furthermore, for the identical ellipticity parameter and incident angles, the decline values along the rotation axis A(2) is more obvious than that along axis A(1). In other words, these results show that the output Sagnac frequency difference can be improved effectively by restraining the eigenmode polarization deviation quantitatively and that these analysis findings are useful for designing and optimizing the structure of laser gyroscopes with super-high precision.
