Soliton microcomb-assisted microring photonic thermometer with ultra-high resolution and broad range
Photonics Research(2023)
摘要
Whispering gallery mode resonators(WGMRs)have proven their advantages in terms of sensitivity and precision in various sensing applications.However,when high precision is pursued,the WGMR demands a high-quality factor usually at the cost of its free spectral range(FSR)and corresponding measurement range.In this article,we propose a high-resolution and wide-range temperature sensor based on chip-scale WGMRs,which utilizes a Si3N4 ring resonator as the sensing element and a MgF2-based microcomb as a broadband frequency reference.By measuring the beatnote signal of the WGM and microcomb,the ultra-high resolution of 58 micro-Kelvin(μK)was obtained.To ensure high resolution and broad range simultaneously,we propose an ambiguity-resolving method based on the gradient of feedback voltage and combine it with a frequency-locking technique.In a proof-of-concept experiment,a wide measurement range of 45 K was demonstrated.Our soliton comb-assisted temperature measurement method offers high-resolution and wide-range capabilities,with promising advance-ments in various sensing applications.
