    摘要: The field of the invention is that of solid-state laser gyros used for the measurements of rotation speed or relative angular positions. This type of equipment is notably used for aeronautical applications. The object of the invention is to complete the optical devices necessary to control the instability of lasers by specific optical devices enabling elimination of the dead zone and of population inversion gratings exiting in the amplifying medium. An “all optical” solid-state laser is hence obtained without moveable parts, stable and without a dead zone. To this end, the laser gyro according to the invention comprises notably and optical assembly enabling a nonreciprocal optical phase-shift to be introduced between the counterpropagating modes; and control means allowing the phase-shift amplitude to be varied periodically around a mean value that is very approximately zero.

    摘要: The general field of the invention is that of rate gyros, of the matter-wave type, allowing the measurement of a speed of rotation in a given direction of measurement. This type of rate gyro works by the Sagnac effect and uses ultracold atoms to perform the measurement. It necessarily comprises an atom trap allowing a cloud of ultracold atoms to be immobilized in a given configuration and means for separation-displacement-recombination of the cloud into two packets of atoms so as to make them trace out a given area. The device according to the invention combines both of these two functions onto one atom chip notably comprising a first conducting wire through which a DC current IDC flows with adjustable intensity, a second conducting wire and a third conducting wire that are substantially parallel, within the region of the trap, to the first conducting wire and are disposed symmetrically on either side of this first wire, the second and the third wire carrying an AC current of the same amplitude and same frequency flowing in the same direction, the maximum amplitude and the frequency of said current being sufficient to create, within the atom cloud, a magnetic field of higher intensity than the magnetic intensity required for the separation of the atom cloud into two packets of atoms.

    摘要: The field of the invention is that of solid-state ring lasers or laser gyros. The laser gyro according to the invention comprises at least one optical cavity in the form of a ring and a solid-state amplifying medium which are designed so that two counterpropagating optical modes can propagate in opposite directions one with respect to the other inside said optical cavity and pass through the amplifying medium, said amplifying medium being coupled to an electromechanical device imparting on said amplifying medium a periodic translational movement along an axis substantially parallel to the direction of propagation of said optical modes. Thus, the population inversion grating, written by the standing wave into the amplifying medium, which disturbs the nominal operation of the laser gyro, is greatly attenuated.
