When coupling a light beam into a waveguide structure, we can get the information of the specimen from the interference signal produced by the reference and sample beams. The evanescent field is sensitive to the surface of guiding layer and different environment will induce different phase change of the light beam, so we can apply this property to detect the surface condition of dielectric media. In this dissertation, a fiber-based waveguide interferometer system that includes low-cost optical fiber based guiding tunnel was built. The principal goal is trying to design a fiber based chip that can be combined with the traditional Mach-Zehnder system. In order to simplify complicated steps before, I design a Teflon fixture that can fix fiber to make etching easier. Besides, there is a flow tunnel design to prevent that specimen pull apart the sensing fiber. This chip has many characteristics including simple structure、easy to fabricate and low-cost. In order to promote the yield of chip making, completely analysis so as to foster the fabrication process was made in this thesis. Because fiber coupler can couple the light beam completely, interference signal will be a single spot of light and need one photo detector to capture signal only. This method not only reduces the cost of system components but also realizes the goal to minimum system volume. The property of flexible of fiber make the volume of system smaller than before and system gets simpler, faster, and has higher sensitivity, so it has the potential to extend the current system into a handheld meter in the future. This fiber-based waveguide interferometry system has been proved to have ability of differentiating between different sample by using air and alcohol solution as the specimen. By way of experimental verifications, we can find that proper signal level change was found with respect to different alcohol and glucose concentrations solutions. In summary, this system was verified experimentally to be able to detect the refractive index changes on the waveguide surface.謝誌……………………………………………………………………….….i 中文摘要……………………………………………………………………..v Abstract…………………………………...………………………………..vi 目錄………………………………………...………………………….…...viii 圖目錄……………………………………...……………………….……….xi 表目錄……………………………………..………………………………..xv 第 1 章 緒論……………………………………………………………….1 1-1 研究背景………………………………………………………….1 1-2 文獻回顧………………………………………………………….2 1-3 研究動機與貢獻………………………………………………….9 1-4 論文架構………………………………………………………...10 第 2 章 波導干涉儀之基本原理………………………………………...12 2-1 基本光學原理…………………………………………………...12 2-1-1 漸逝波原理……………………………………………...12 2-1-2幾何光學分析……………………………………………15 2-1-3電磁波原理與傳播形式…………………………………20 2-2 波導之波動光學分析…………………………………………...23 2-2-1 三層波導之分析………………………………………...23 2-2-1 四層波導之分析………………………………………...26 2-3光纖之應用與原理………………………………………………28 2-3-1光纖基本結構簡介 ………………………..……………28 2-3-2光纖種類…………………………………………………29 2-3-3光纖傳遞之基本原理……………………………………33 2-3-4光纖感測原理……………………………………………39 2-3-5光纖中TM、TE光定義之探討……………………………40 2-4 光學干涉原理………..………..…….……………………………42 2-4-1 基本干涉原理……………………………………….……42 2-4-2 干涉儀種類……………………………………….………44 第 3 章 光纖晶片之設計與製作………..………………………………...49 3-1 光纖晶片介紹……………………………………………….……49 3-2 光纖晶片設計…………………………………………. …………50 3-3 光纖晶片參數量測……………………………….………………53 3-4 光纖定義偏極態之處理……………………………….…………59 3-5 光纖晶片製作流程………………………………….……………60 3-6 晶片商業價值比較………………………………….……………61 第 4 章 光纖式波導干涉儀之設計與研製………………….……………64 4-1 系統設計理念與目標……………………………….……………64 4-2 系統光路與元件選擇………………………….…………………65 4-3 系統光路架設…………………………………….………………70 第 5 章 實驗結果與探討………………………………….………………72 5-1 鍍膜模擬……………………………………….…………………72 5-2 光纖晶片製備探討……………………………….………………73 5-3 系統測試與非生物性樣本量測………………….………………76 5-3-1 系統穩定度測試……………………………...……………77 5-3-2 TM、TE偏振光試驗………………………..………………78 5-3-3 重現性測試……………………………...…………………79 5-3-4 酒精溶液測試與分析……………………...………………80 5-3-5 葡萄糖溶液測試與分析…………………...………………82 第 6 章 結論與未來展望…………………………………..……...………85 6-1 結論………………………………………………………….……85 6-2 未來展望……………………………………………. ….…………86 第 7 章 參考文獻……………………….…………………….……….……88en-US光纖干涉儀馬赫曾德FiberInterferometerMach-Zehnder光纖式波導干涉儀之設計與研製Design and Fabrication of a Fiber based Waveguide Interferometerthesis
