摘要
An acousto-optic fiber interferometer has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated by employing two MgF2 sandwiches to implement concatenated flexural acoustic wave modulation onto single-mode optical fibers. The transmission spectrum of the acoustic grating pair has been experimentally investigated. Experimental results indicate that interferometric spectral fringes possess a frequency sensitivity as large as -499.0 nm/MHz due to the Mach-Zehnder interference. Moreover, the applied radio frequency signal voltage for flexural wave generation has a great impact on the transmission spectral properties. The work presented would be of importance for the understanding of the acousto-optic interaction mechanism in concatenated acoustic fiber gratings and is helpful for the design of related acousto-optic fiber devices.
