To investigate the image-forming property of optical system having Gaussian amplitude for polychromatic source, we calculated the chromaticity variation and the illuminance distribution. Considered polychromatic sources in this paper are A light which is on incandescent-tungsten lamp, C light which is a daylight, and $D_{65}$ light which is a extend daylight to the near ultraviolet. The polychromatic sources represent the different chromaticity values at a geometrical image point. The chromaticity variation of optical system having a Gaussian amplitude is smaller than that having an uniform amplitude. The illuminance distributions for polychromatic sources present nearly the same values, and the depth of focus for optical system having a Gaussian amplitude is wider than that having an uniform amplitude. From these results, we know that the depth of focus increases and the chromaticity variation decreases, when the incident light amplitude is modulated from an uniform amplitude to a Gaussian amplitude.

대용량의 정보처리에 필요한 새로운 광원에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 가운데, 광원과 광변조 능력을 동시에 가지고 있는 VCSEL이 상당한 주목을 받아 왔지만, 이 소자는 발진하는 레이저의 파장이 활성층의 온도 변화에 따라 천이하는 점과, 편광의 변질 등으로 인해 8$\times$8이상의 고집적 어레이 제작이 어려운 단점이 있어 실용화에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 마이크로 디스크의 위스퍼링 갤러리 모드를 응용한 광양자테 (PQR) 레이저가$^{[l,2]}$ 지닌 몇 가지 특성들은 VCSEL이 가진 문제들을 해결할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고 있다. 수 $\mu$A에서 nA급의 문턱전류로 구동할 수 있어 주입전류에 의한 활성층의 온도변화 통제가 가능하며, VCSEL이 온도가 증가에 따라 출력파장이 선형적으로 증가하는 반면, PQR 레이저의 출력 파장은 (equation omitted)에 비례하여 증가하므로 온도-파장 관계가 포화되는 영역에서는 주입전류나 외기 온도에 의한 영향을 거의 받지 않는 안정성 때문에 고집적 어레이 광원 제작시 유리하다. 또, 레이저 출력면의 각도에 따라 각각 다른 파장의 빛을 방출하므로, 각도에 따른 각 파장별 필터를 이용하면 광센서 등 여러 가지 용도에 응용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, we system the system design and numerical analysis of the ultrafast optical delay line using by optical phase modulator. The numerical analysis carried out with 1310nm, lops laser and electro-optic phase modulator. As the results of numerical analysis, we show a scanning rate of 0.5 GHz and a delay range of 19.0ps. Compare with mechanical delay line, the optical delay line has a high scanning speed and a high repetition rate.

We proposed and demonstrated a new scheme for subtracting the source excess noise from the output of the fiber-optic gyroscope. Unlike the previous methods, this scheme has an advantage of not requiring a delaying fiber for source noise detection and can be simply applied to fiber gyroscope operating at the proper frequency. By usmg this scheme. the proper frequency component of the source excess noise was subtracted from the gyroscope output. As a result, we obtained the reduction of noise by 12 dB (electrical) which was measured from the noise floor spectrum in the fiber gyroscope modulated at the proper frequency. We also obtarned !be random walk coefficient of thc gyro output reduced by a factor of 3.5. f 3.5.

This paper studies the high frequency PWM (pulse width modulation) driving technique to increase an optical efficiency and to prevent an optical color quenching of blue laser for head up display on vehicles using digital micro mirror device (DMD) panel and yellow phosphor wheel. The proposed approach adaptively drives the current pulse width modulated signals of high optical power of blue laser to increase the lifetime and to decrease the stem temperature of laser. This method stabilizes the temperature of laser according to the driving environment and the forward current capacity. By the proposed method, the brightness of blue laser is improved by about 37% compared to the continuous waveform current driving method.

This study carried out an experiment to identify subject's work effectiveness and energy saving effect using LED light. Towards this end, this study configured nine various lighting environments in order to control PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) and illuminance (lux), which are the characteristics of LED light. The PWM ratio of LED light was set as R:G:B=1:1:1, R:G:B=4:1:5, and R:G:B=8:7:7, respectively, and illuminance (lux) was set as 400 lx, 700 lx, and 1000 lx, respectively. In addition, the indoor environment was set temperature $20-24^{\circ}C$, humidity 50%-60%, and the amount of clothing 1. This study analyzed work effectiveness and energy consumption in nine lighting environments, each. Error correction was performed for work effectiveness analysis, and cumulative power consumption was measured in each lighting environment for energy consumption analysis. According to experiment results through the lighting environments suggested in this study, accuracy and spent time effectiveness were good in 700lux and higher than 400lux. For spent time, the best effectiveness was revealed in the suggested PWM ratio, R:G:B=8:7:7. The lowest power consumption on each illuminance (lux) was revealed in the order of R:G:B=8:7:7, RGB=1:1:1, and R:G:B=4:1:5. Therefore, pulse-width modulation effect is proposed in this paper was found to affect the efficiency and energy saving.

FMCW LiDAR system with robust target detection capabilities even under adverse operating conditions such as snow, rain, and fog is addressed in this paper. Our focus is primarily on enhancing the performance of FMCW LiDAR by improving the characteristics of the frequency-modulated laser, which directly influence range resolution, coherence length, and maximum measurement range etc. of LiDAR. We describe the utilization of an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder laser interferometer to measure real-time changes of the lasing frequency and to correct frequency modulation errors through an optical phase-locked loop technique. To extend the coherence length of laser, we employ an extended-cavity laser diode as the laser source and implement a laser interferometer with an photonic integrated circuit for miniaturization of optical system. The developed FMCW LiDAR system exhibits a bandwidth of 10.045GHz and a remarkable distance resolution of 0.84mm.

We have proposed and implemented a novel cost-effective optical subcarrier mutiplexing transceiver for base station without light sources in which optical signal can be transmitted bidirectionally over a single optical fiber. Modulated optical signal is retransmitted from the base station to the central office using a ring-type base station which consists of a circulator and an Mach-Zehnder modulator, where the optical source is supplied from the central office. In order to investigate the feasibility of the proposed base station without light sources, we have measured adjacent channel power ratio and carrier to noise ratio by transmitting the IS-95 CDMA signal and 14 tones carrier signal bidirectionally through the system.

레이저 다이오드 구동 전류펄스기간의 발진주파수 변조와 간섭계 출력신호의 시간지연 샘플링을 이용하여 3x3 coupler등과 같은 특수 광부품을 사용하지 않고도 1개씩의 광원과 광검출기를 이용하여 측정신호의 변화방향과 함께 half fringe의 수를 count할 수 있으며 광연결선 주변환경의 변화에 의한 세기변화 에러도 피할 수 있는 간섭형 센서를 위한 새로운 신호처리방식을 제안하고 이 방식을 거울내장형 FP간섭계를 이용한 온도센서에 적용하였다. 온도센서소자로 cavity length가 1cm인 FP간섭계를 이용하여 실온에서 360.deg.C에 걸쳐 분해능 2.7.deg.C로 측정하였으며 이때 최대측정속도는 $ 1.378*10^{5}$.deg.C/sec로 계산되었다. 이 방식에서 분해능과 최대측정속도는 반비례 관계를 가지며 감지 광섬유의 길이에 비례하여 분해능을 높일 수 있다. 또한 6개까지의 센서소자를 한개의 광원과 광검출기로 모니터하는 다중화 센싱 또한 가능한 신호처리 방식으로써 불평형 간섭계를 이용한 모든 종류의 센서에 대해 적용이 가능하다.
