Abstract:
The relationships among the proportions of the neon dual isotopes ratio, scale factor corrections (SFCs), light intensities, environmental magnetic field and magnetic zero drift are discussed in detail by numerical simulations. The results show that the unification of the optimal operating point (OP) and the frequency stabilization operating point (FSP) is achievable by adjusting the proportions of neon dual isotopes accurately and tuning the cavity length with frequency stabilization system exactly. In that case, the left-rotation and right-rotation gyros can obtain the same SFC, which can decrease the magnetic sensitivity of the laser gyro efficiently. The Zeeman effect zero drift and the Faraday bias zero drift are both reduced by two orders of magnitude, while the magnetic shielding requirement of laser tube is decreased by 1–2 orders of magnitude.
