微纳光纤中声致周期结构的耦合特性及应用研究

By introducing acoustic wave into micro/nano optical fiber, the project highlights the fast response and convenient tunablitiy for the structure, which is important for the application of micro/nano photonics devices. In the project, we expect the acoustic wave will bring periodic refractive index modulations in the micro/nano optical fiber. Based on up to data researches, such structure should gain the features of tunable, fast response, low power consumption, compact size, and so on, yet few works has been done in the field. Our project will include three parts covering from the fundamental theory to its possible applications: 1. Theoretical analysis the characteristics of periodic refractive index modulation produced by propagating acoustic wave in micro/nano fiber to present the parametric influence to the micro/nano fiber, including diameter, refractive index, acousto-optic coupling length and so on. 2. Experimentally explore the characteristics of acousto-induced periodic structure to convince the theory, and more important, achieving the tunability of spectral, driving power features, mode coupling, response time, and so on for its further applications. 3. With a fixed period grating structure driven by acoustic wave, we expect to construct acosuto-optic superlattice structure in the micro/nano optical fiber and explore its applications such as tunable subluminal device. The project will present a clear view to acousto-optic effects in the micro/nano scale, meanwhile it will introduce characteristics of tunability with fast response to all-fiber micro/nano photonics devices, which is important for its application.
