摘要

本文对传统的马赫-泽恩德干涉仪（MZI）配置和环路端接 MZI（LT-MZI）配置进行了比较分析，强调了它们各自的优势以及在传感应用中的应用。传统的马赫-泽恩德干涉仪以其简便性和多功能性而闻名，而 LT-MZI 则采用了环路端接以提高灵敏度和光谱性能。通过对设计原理、运行机制和性能指标的详细研究，可以看出 LT-MZI 配置具有更高的灵敏度和更好的干扰模式控制，因此特别适合高精度传感应用。这一观点为针对特定光子传感需求选择和优化 MZI 配置提供了宝贵的见解。

Integrated optics: conventional Mach–Zehnder interferometer configuration versus loop terminated Mach–Zehnder interferometer configuration–a perspective

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the conventional Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration and the loop-terminated MZI (LT-MZI) configuration, emphasizing their respective advantages and utilization in sensing applications. The conventional MZI, renowned for its simplicity and versatility, is contrasted with the LT-MZI, which incorporates a loop termination to enhance sensitivity and spectral performance. Through a detailed examination of design principles, operational mechanisms, and performance metrics, it is shown that the LT-MZI configuration offers superior sensitivity and improved interference pattern control, making it particularly suitable for high-precision sensing applications. This perspective provides valuable insights into the selection and optimization of MZI configurations for specific photonic sensing needs.

期刊介绍： Journal of Optics publishes new experimental and theoretical research across all areas of pure and applied optics, both modern and classical. Research areas are categorised as: Nanophotonics and plasmonics Metamaterials and structured photonic materials Quantum photonics Biophotonics Light-matter interactions Nonlinear and ultrafast optics Propagation, diffraction and scattering Optical communication Integrated optics Photovoltaics and energy harvesting We discourage incremental advances, purely numerical simulations without any validation, or research without a strong optics advance, e.g. computer algorithms applied to optical and imaging processes, equipment designs or material fabrication.
