Squeezed-Light-Enhanced Dispersive Gyroscope based Optical Microcavities

Optical gyroscope based on the Sagnac effect have excellent potential in the application of high-sensitivity inertial rotation sensors. In this paper, we demonstrate that for an optical resonance gyroscope with normal dispersion, the measurement sensitivity can be increased by two orders of magnitude through coupling into a squeezed vacuum light, which is different from that in the classical situation. When the system is operated under critical anomalous dispersion condition, injecting a squeezed vacuum light allows the measurement sensitivity beyond the corresponding standard quantum limit by five orders of magnitude, with a minimum value of 3.8*10^-5 Hz. This work offers a promising possibility for developing optical gyroscopes that combine high sensitivity with tiny size.

Exceptional surface-enhanced Rotation Sensing with Robustness in an optical microcavity

Exceptional points (EPs) are special singularities of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. At an EP, two or more eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenstates coalesce. Recently, EP-based optical gyroscope near an EP was extensively investigated to improve the response to rotation. However, the highly resultant dimensionality in the eigenstate space causing from the EP-based system is sensitivity to more external perturbations, that is, the great response at EPs requires strict implementation conditions. To solve this problem, a new non-Hermitian structure was proposed that realizes an exceptional surface (EP surface) constructed of numerous EPs embedded in a high-dimensional parameter space. With respect to the isolated EPs, non-Hermitian EP surface provides additional degrees of freedom to permit the undesired perturbations (such as fabrication errors) shifts along the EP surface which corresponds to the robustness. On the other hand, the rotation will force the system away from these EPs obtaining a sensitivity enhancement of three orders of magnitude, compared to the traditional Sagnac effect rotation detecting. The EP surface system has a potential to combine robustness with enhanced sensitivity of the rotation.

High-sensitivity bio-sensor based on the real-splitting indirectly coupled Anti-Parity time symmetric WGMs

Detecting the size of single nanoparticle with high precision is crucial to understanding the characteristic of the nanoparticle. In this paper, we research the single particle detection based on the Anti-parity time symmetric (APT) indirectly coupled WGMs. The results show that the Anti-parity time symmetric WGM nanoparticle sensor exhibits giant enhancement in frequency splitting compared with single WGM sensor, when the system operating at exceptional point (EP). With respect to the parity-time symmetric nanoparticle sensor, our research exhibits a real eigenfrequency splitting, which can be directly detected.

Variable optical chirality in an atomic assisted microresonator

A whispering gallery mode resonator with a cavity-made slot filled atomic vapor is demonstrated, in which the chiral symmetry is broken induced by asymmetric backscattering of counter-propagating optical waves in the WGM microcavity. The chirality of resonator modes is steered via tuning dispersion relation in the cavity-made slot. The system exhibiting a high displacement sensitivity 15.22 THz/nm could be applied to optomechanical sensing applications.
