Abstract
We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a bus temperature sensor array based on nonlinear optics second harmonic generation (SHG) in periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) and wavelength coded with poling period. The temperature response on bulk PPLN is studied by interrogating SHG spectra. Group dispersion factor and efficient thermal-birefringence between fundamental wave and second harmonic wave are proposed to describe peak wavelength shift. Single temperature sensor capitalizing on mode-locked laser provides 0.11 nm/°C sensitivity, 80 °C dynamic range around room temperature, and 2 °C temperature resolution. Additionally, a wavelength-coded 1 × 4 sensor array is demonstrated via quasi-comb spectra induced by poling period engineering. Each sensing unit has a unique poling period and SHG peak wavelength which can shift independently, and the temporal-evolved joint spectra of two non-cooperative targets confirm the practicability. The arrayed temperature sensors validate great applying potential on photonic integrated circuits (PIC).
期刊介绍:
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
