I-WMOSS: Interferometric wavelength multiplexed optical scanning sensor

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsConference proceedingpeer-review

Abstract

Proposed is an electronically agile optical scanning sensor based on wavelength multiplexed optical interferometry. The basic design uses wavelength tuning to enable an optical scanning beam and a wavelength dispersive element like a grating to act as a beam splitter and beam combiner to create the two beams required for interferometry. A compact no-moving parts and environmentally robust design of the sensor is shown that enables an all-fiber in-line low noise delivery sensor using a fiber circulator, optical fiber, and fiber lens connected to a Grating-optic and reflective media sensor chip. The proposed fiber-remoted all-passive sensor can be used in numerous sensing applications where compact size and remoting is highly desired.
