Abstract
An interferometric optical gyro (IOG) based on integrated devices are a promising alternative for miniaturized inertial sensors. However, improving their accuracy, which is determined by the sensing coil insertion loss, is crucial. In this work, an IOG is built using an integrated sensing coil produced from a 2.14-m-long SiO2 waveguide, the minimum bend radius and spacing of which are chosen to minimize the sensing coil insertion loss. The coil length is chosen by considering optimal detection limit constraints. Sinusoidal wave biasing modulation improves the system detection sensitivity. Finally, the IOG realizes the best yet reported bias drift of 7.32°/h.
