摘要

A silicon-based integrated optical pressure sensor using an intermodal interference between the fundamental TM-like and TE-like modes is described. The sensor consists of a micromachined rectangular diaphragm and a straight polystyrene optical waveguide passing across the diaphragm. The use of the intermodal interference has the potential advantage of shortening the sensor length since it needs neither a Y-branch nor a 3-dB coupler. In the presence of the pressure difference on the diaphragm, the phase difference is yielded between the two guided modes by an anisotropic index change induced by the elasto-optic effect. The phase difference is finally transformed into a change in light intensity by an analyzing polarizer. We fabricated a sensor with a 1.2 mmX 10 mmX20 μm diaphragm over which the waveguides were formed at 50 μm intervals. In the experiment, a linearly-polarized He-Ne laser beam at 633 nm was coupled to the two guided modes at equal intensity. The output intensity through a polarizer was sinusoidally changed at a period of 64 kPa, corresponding to a phase sensitivity of 98 mrad/kPa, for the waveguide nearest to the diaphragm edge. The measurement was carried out for other waveguide positions. The largest sensitivity was obtained for the waveguide nearest to the diaphragm edge as theoretically expected.
