We build a resonant fiber optic gyro based on Kagome hollow-core fiber. A semi-bulk cavity architecture based on a 18-m-long Kagome fiber permits to achieve a cavity finesse of 23 with a resonance linewidth of 700 kHz. An optimized Pound-Drever-Hall servo-locking scheme is used to probe the cavity in reflection. Closed-loop operation of the gyroscope permits to reach an angular random walk as small as 0.004$^circ/sqrt{mathrm{h}}$ and a bias stability of 0.45$^circ$/h over 0.5 s of integration time.

We describe a fiber optical gyroscope based on the Sagnac effect realized on a multiplexed telecom fiber network. Our loop encloses an area of 20 km^2 and coexists with Internet data traffic. This Sagnac interferometer achieves a sensitivity of about 1e-8 (rad/s)/sqrt(Hz), thus approaching ring laser gyroscopes without using narrow-linewidth laser nor sophisticated optics. The proposed gyroscope is sensitive enough for seismic applications, opening new possibilities for this kind of optical fiber sensors
Ultrahigh-resolution fiber-optic sensing has been demonstrated with a meter-long, high-finesse fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (FFPI). The main technical challenge of large, environment-induced resonance frequency drift is addressed by locking the i nterrogation laser to a similar meter-long FFPI, which, along with the FFPI sensor, is thermally and mechanically isolated from the ambient. A nominal, noise-limited strain resolution of 800 f{epsilon} /sqrt(Hz) has been achieved within 1 to 100 Hz. Strain resolution further improves to 75 f{epsilon} /sqrt(Hz) at 1 kHz, 60 f{epsilon} /sqrt(Hz) at 2 kHz and 40 f{epsilon} /sqrt(Hz) at 23 kHz, demonstrating comparable or even better resolutions than proven techniques such as {pi}-phase-shifted and slow-light fiber Bragg gratings. Limitations of the current system are analyzed and improvement strategies are presented. The work lays out a feasible path toward ultrahigh-resolution fiber-optic sensing based on long FFPIs.
Recovering the wavelength from disordered speckle patterns has become an exciting prospect as a wavelength measurement method due to its high resolution and simple design. In previous studies, panel cameras have been used to detect the subtle differe nces between speckle patterns. However, the volume, bandwidth, sensitivity, and cost (in non-visible bands) associated with panel cameras have hindered their utility in broader applications, especially in high speed and low-cost measurements. In this work, we broke the limitations imposed by panel cameras by using a quadrant detector (QD) to capture the speckle images. In the scheme of QD detection, speckle images are directly filtered by convolution, where the kernel is equal to one quarter of a speckle pattern. First, we proposed an up-sampling algorithm to pre-process the QD data. Then a new convolution neural network (CNN) based algorithm, shallow residual network (SRN), was proposed to train the up-sampled images. The experimental results show that a resolution of 4 fm (~ 0.5 MHz) was achieved at 1550nm with an updating speed of ~ 1 kHz. More importantly, the SRN shows excellent robustness. The wavelength can be precisely reconstructed from raw QD data without any averaging, even where there exists apparent noise. The low-cost, simple structure, high speed and robustness of this design promote the speckle-based wavemeter to the industrial grade. In addition, without the restriction of panel cameras, it is believed that this wavemeter opens new routes in many other fields, such as distributed optical fiber sensors, optical communications, and laser frequency stabilization.
We report long-term laser frequency stabilization using only the target laser and a pair of 5 m fiber interferometers, one as a frequency reference and the second as a sensitive thermometer to stabilize the frequency reference. When used to stabilize a distributed feedback laser at 795 nm, the frequency Allan deviation at 1000 s drops from 5.6*10^{-8} to 6.9*10^{-10}. The performance equals that of an offset lock employing a second, atom-stabilized laser in the temperature control.

Fiber-based optical microcavities exhibit high quality factor and low mode volume resonances that make them attractive for coupling light to individual atoms or other microscopic systems. Moreover, their low mass should lead to excellent mechanical r esponse up to high frequencies, opening the possibility for high bandwidth stabilization of the cavity length. Here, we demonstrate a locking bandwidth of 44 kHz achieved using a simple, compact design that exploits these properties. Owing to the simplicity of fiber feedthroughs and lack of free-space alignment, this design is inherently compatible with vacuum and cryogenic environments. We measure the transfer function of the feedback circuit (closed-loop) and the cavity mount itself (open-loop), which, combined with simulations of the mechanical response of our device, provide insight into underlying limitations of the design as well as further improvements that can be made.
