“…At resonance, significant optical power is recirculating in the ring and nonlinear effects as stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) can be observed for input powers of less than 100 μW [13]. As it will be seen later, fiber-optic ring resonators have been used in a number of applications, including fiber ring lasers [8], sensors [14], fiber laser gyroscopes [15,16], optical spectrum analyzers [17,18] and optical delay lines [19], among others. One of the first and main sensing applications of fiber-optic ring resonator is as a gyroscope and the major attraction of this kind of resonator gyro is that the cavity length can be taken much shorter than the convectional gyro in the ratio of 2/F.…”

In this chapter, theoretical analysis and electro-optical characterization of a fiber optic passive ring resonator interferometer (FOPRRI) were realized. First, a theoretical description and analysis of all-pass and add-drop filter configurations were performed, hence obtaining their respective transfer function, taking into account, the physical properties of a standard single-mode optical fiber as resonator constitutive material. Second, computational numerical simulations of a typical FOPRRI were performed with different analysis methods: effective index method (EIM), coupled mode theory (CMT), finite element method (FEM) and finite difference time domain (FDTD). Third, a comparative analysis of the results obtained with these methods is realized, showing the most accurate and appropriate for filter electro-optical characterization as a consequence. Last, and as an ultimate step, taking as reference the previously obtained electro-optical characterization for both configurations, the main applications are derived.

Abstract-A single-mode fiber-optic ring resonator is used as a multipath reference for multiplexing white light interferometric sensors. The theory of applying the resonator for multiplexing Michelson-type interferometer sensor is presented. The capacity of the technique in terms of maximum sensor number is evaluated for both a linear array and a sensor matrix. Experimental results for a three-sensor linear array and 2 1 sensor matrix are also presented.Index Terms-Multiplexing, optical fiber sensors, ring resonator, white light interferometry.

Laser phase-induced intensity noise limits the dynamic range of all kinds of recirculating structures under short coherence illumination. The shape of the power spectrum of this noise, while it is always periodic, depends on the device type. Recirculating delay lines and the reflecting Fabry-Perot interferometer (F-P) exhibit minimum noise at integer multiples of 1/(round-trip time), whereas the transmitting F-P shows maximum noise at exactly these frequencies. This phenomenon is theoretically analyzed, and expressions are given for the standard deviation, the autocovariance, and the power spectrum of that noise for a general recirculating structure. The important problem of laser phase-induced intensity noise for the F-P structure is studied in detail, theoretically and experimentally, in both reflecting and transmitting modes.
