Zusammenfassung:A photonic integrated chip is configured as a transmitter-receiver chip. The photonic integrated chip includes a light emitter, a light detector, a multi-mode interference coupler, and a mode-filed adapter. The light emitted by the light emitter is guided to a core layer formed below the multi-mode interference coupler, and further to the mode-filed adapter for transmission of light to an optical fiber coupled with the photonic integrated chip. Similarly, light received by the mode-filed adapter from the optical fiber propagates to the core layer, and is guided by the multi-mode interference coupler into the light detector. The photonic integrated chip is utilized to realize a single-unit transmitter-receiver module for a fiber optic gyroscope circuit based on monolithic integration of photonics components via wafer fabrication on a substrate. The photonic integrated chip has a low fabrication cost, low size, and is robust.
