Abstract

Integrated optics will play a major role in the next generation of fiber gyros since the potential exists for mass producing low-cost integrated gyro front-end circuits. All the necessary components (phase modulators, polarizers, and power splitters) have been demonstrated with Ti:LiNb0₃ waveguide technology. An attractive alternative of combining the 3 dB splitter and polarizer functions in a 3x3 directional coupler is presented.
